Writing

===Our first unit in writing is on the topic of personal narratives. Students are learning how writers get their ideas. We are starting to look at people and places that are important to us and help us remember clear, small moments that we want to write about. We are also looking at objects that help spark memories for us. We are learning that good personal narratives are about small, clear moments that we can focus on clearly and remember rich details about. We want to pretend we are looking at our memories through a magnifying glass and seeing every detail. ===
