How can we best use our resource time together? Can we introduce writing in a playful way to a diverse group of K children?
Students need: • To see themselves as writers • To have fun • To develop a sense of sound/symbol relationships
• To find their stories • To work with criteria • Teacher’s Need: What’s Next for This Beginning Writer? – Reid, Schultz, Peterson (Pembroke Pub)
K-1 Writing: Model - pictures & print Refer to criteria Kids draw & write Refer to criteria
