This week, we will start building our community in our writing program, Being a Writer. The class will create an anchor chart of expectations for writing time and work to define how each student can become an author.
Students will be introduced to our behavior management program http://www.classcraft.com. Through this program students can earn class rewards, armor, and pets (in software) by helping others, being kind, and showing teamwork. I encourage you to sign up for a parental account via the website or iOS or Android app. It is free. I’ve also included instructions on how to sign up in your student GO folders.
We will read The Best Part of Me and students will begin writing a narrative about the best part of each of them.
We will work together and become a community this week. Students will participate in a variety of team building exercises.
Please make sure to turn in all required school forms placing them in the Return to School side of your student’s GO Folder.
