The students have designed and created covers for their booklets. They have illustrated several important scenes from their person's life that will complement their stories. All of the children have been working hard, so they should be proud of their efforts.

Stay tuned for photos of the final products in the coming weeks!

This week we started revising our stories. We discussed how revising means to "look again" at our writing. On Monday, students reread their own pieces and added paragraphs. They also highlighted transition words to help identify places that may need more of these types of words. On Thursday, the students will use a checklist to offer feedback to a classmate.

The students worked diligently this week to complete their drafts and then type them. Next week, we will start revising - both individually and with a classmate. I look forward to continuing the Writing Process with the class.
