These are all strategies and techniques that our students use daily during Writer's Workshop. For the last 31 days of school, we have worked diligently to learn about and meet the Kindergarten Writing Standard 2. Our Narrative Writing Standard states that students will be able to write stories that stay on topic, tell events in order, have a matching picture and use storybook language. Our Writer's Workshop includes a mini lesson, a work period (where students are writing their stories) and a share time, where we take a look at work that is meeting the standard. Right now we are focusing on "stretching out words" by using the letters and sounds to write simple stories. We encourage the students to begin their writing with storybook language (One day, One time, Far far away) and use finger spaces between words. The students truly love to create stories and express themselves through writing. We have seen a tremendous amount of growth in all of our students and their ability to write meaningful stories.
