*This was our second week of school. The twenty-three students and I are spending time getting to know each other, sharing ourselves as writers and readers, and celebrating our strengths.
*I got this idea online from my friend Colby Sharp. When I read about his class doing this activity, I knew I wanted to try it with my learners.
