Week 23: A Grammar Goodbye

Well, it's not like we'll never speak of grammar again--just the unit will wrap for now as we continue to revisit these key parts of writing. I departed from my original plan and decided instead of worksheets, we'd do A LOT of tactile, hands-on activities. It was fun and I could see students learn and start to put together the pieces! I love what I do and the opportunity I have to work with such great kids.

I am offering a few extra credit opportunities. I've told them all to students and everything is in my room.

Please let me know if you have questions on grading...and, above all, KEEP READING!!!

BIG congrats to Colton S. on his award winning story in Scholastic's and Rick Riodrian's contest inviting students to write a fictional story imagining that one of their parents were a god. Colton was one of 13 finalists out of 5,000 entries!!! He's won a Rick Riodrian book set. Way to go Colton!! So dang proud of my writers when they are recognized on a national level: WOW!!!!!!!!
