Living+Like+A+Writer



//**WRITING WORKSHOP**//

**We will teach our kids to live like writers. It is our belief that reading and writing go hand in hand and we will use this mantra as we progress through the school year. This year in writing workshop the students will learn a variety of writing pieces. We will be composing pieces such as personal narratives, informative, descriptive, and persuasive writings. Did you know in 2009-2010 our classroom was featured in an educational teaching video for professionals wanting to learn how to incorporate writing into their classroom? Our students were featured as well as commentary from both of us.**

**The students will be involved in our writing workshop for about 40 minutes every day. During this time, students will work on mentor text based projects, apply lessons learned from minilessons and incorporate them into their own pieces. We will occasionally post their work on this page.**
