The kids love writing around the room and using the mini writing offices.
Each and everyday students participate in and hour long Writer's Workshop. Students begin by taking part in a mini lesson given by the teacher which focuses on one of the six traits or another topic that will make them better writers. After a 10-15 minute mini lesson students then get the opportunity to work on their own writing as I have mini conferences with students. At the end of the workshop a few select authors get to read their stories in the Author's Chair. The kids have been working hard each day to build their writing stamina. I can't wait to see their progress as the year unfolds.
