Publishing Power!

Today we had a wonderful Writer's Workshop! Everyone was busy working somewhere in the writing process.

Some people were writing first drafts. Some people were revising by adding show not tells and making sure their hook and endings are crafted well.

Other people were working on cover art or editing.

Please share what you enjoyed about Writer's Workshop today. Where are YOU in the publishing process?

Quality Posts are Us!

We are learning to blog our thoughtful comments! We know that a quality blog comment...
  • answers the question of the post.
  • is usually three or more sentences.
  • has correct capitalization and ending marks.
Please let me know specifically what you think about third grade so far.  What is your favorite part or parts of the day? Do you like our classroom? Do you like our Memorable Lines Wall? Fancy Work Wall? I am very CURIOUS about your feeling about third grade!
