This year in writing we will follow a Writer’s Workshop
approach which provides students the opportunity to write in a variety of
genres and helps foster a love of writing. We have spent the beginning of the
year discussing how writing will look in our classroom and the tools we will
need as writers. A very important tool
that we will use each day during Writer’s Workshop is the Writer’s Notebook. In
order to personalize our notebooks and to make them special, students brought
in pictures and photographs that are meaningful to them. These pictures and
photographs will be great inspiration when students are deciding on a topic to
write about.
I enjoyed watching the excitement students had while bringing
their pictures out and looking through them. Students were eager to talk with
me and their classmates about the pictures of their favorite things and the
memories that the photographs evoked. I am very excited
to read the great pieces of writing that these images inspire and to watch the
students grow as passionate writers.
