How can we best use our resource time together? Can we introduce writing in a playful way to a diverse group of K children?

Students need: •  To see themselves as writers •  To have fun •  To develop a sense of sound/symbol relationships

•  To find their stories •  To work with criteria •  Teacher’s Need: What’s Next for This Beginning Writer? – Reid, Schultz, Peterson (Pembroke Pub)

K-1 Writing: Model - pictures & print Refer to criteria Kids draw & write Refer to criteria
