Agendas:
-Wacky Hair Day tomorrow
-Lunch Lady orders (can be completed online)
Today we began our Write On writing unit, based on the book, How I Became A Pirate, by Melinda Long (Comment je suis devenu pirate). We are using this (and other pirate-themed fictional stories) as a mentor text for our fictional writing about, what else? PIRATES!
We discussed how the story used creative imagery and has a clear beginning, middle and ending. Today we began our story planning by defining our characters and setting. Tomorrow, we will work on our inciting action (problem), and how the solution of the problem will develop. We met with our writing conference partners, to make sure that we were on the right track, and to offer our helpful ideas and insights. What a great way to kick off our week! We will conclude our unit next Thursday with a pirate themed day...Stay tuned!
