After yesterday's lesson on ideas, I had several students indicate that they wanted to try revising for focused ideas on their own before they would feel comfortable that they could do it. Therefore, we took today to have a writer's workshop before moving on to voice. I wanted to have the opportunity to check in on everyone and see how they were revising their personal narrative.
From what I have seen so far, the kids are doing very well. They will be coming home tonight with the request that they clean up all of their revisions and write a second draft. This draft should be revised for ideas and organization. The students should also fill out a reflection sheet, indicating where they are so far with their learning and where they still need improvement.
If you have any questions about this, please let me know. Thank you for all of the support you are giving your students and our learning community.
