Writing Journals

We have added a new writing activity to the writing station and the kids are very excited  about it.   First, we wrote a story as whole class entitled "Robert the Artist."  Next, the students worked in small groups to write a story based on the the topic of the specific writing journal.  We focused on creating  a beginning, middle and end.  The journals will be in the writing station, but I am hoping we will also be using them during our read to self time.
