*We read everyday!
*We write everyday!
*One goal I had for this year was to have my readers and writers share more.
*I wouldn't say I have reached this goal, but I am getting better.
*I try to build in "share" time each day for both the readers and writers. This piece of the workshop has been a great addition and we have found it extremely valuable.
*What I have noticed as the year has progressed is that the students themselves will ASK to share either their writing and/or what they are reading. I love when this happens. There may not always be time to fit this type of sharing in during the day, but I'm making a point to make this a priority.
*Recently two of my writers asked to share pieces they worked on during our writer's notebooks time. Here is our weekly schedule for our writer's notebooks...
Monday - Music Monday (Write about a piece of music)
Tuesday - Random Topic Tuesday (Write about a random topic from a list of 156 topics)
Wednesday - Picture Wednesday (Write about an image/picture)
Thursday - Life Lesson Thursday (Write about a video with a life-lesson)
Friday - Friday Choice (Write about whatever they would like)
*I've included the two pieces that were recently shared. I was thrilled to see what the writers are coming up with and creating on the page...
This piece came from Life-Lesson Thursday - "Being Inspired"
This piece came from Music Monday - "Rise Up" by Andra Day
