Celebrating Writing Progress



Today we celebrated the improvements we are seeing in our writing. Everyone chose a piece of writing that is 'harder to read' and another piece that is 'easier to read'. The children talked about wrote about the differences they could see. There were statements like:
"This is easier to read because I left spaces between my words."
"This writing is confusing because I left out some words."
"My writing is easier to read now because I add labels to the pictures and details to my writing."
"I can't read this old writing!"
"This writing is so much more interesting."

The children were invited to share their work with Mr Schunk, Mrs. Donaghey, Miss Cannon or Ms Lyn. They listened really well to each other, and gave lots of compliments.
To finish off we had popcorn and fruit punch while saying "CHEERS!" for all our great work.

Yay for weekends....
