Writing - Q1 Week 3 Day 3

Today we finished the lesson about learning from a mentor text. Students wrote their first flashdraft of a moment from their own life, trying to apply strategies from the texts we read yesterday.

This should be in the Writer's Notebook on the Next Clean Page. Be sure to date the entry and put a title - "Flashdraft Personal Narrative #1"

Writing Partners then shared their writing and marked the places where they saw one of the strategies from the anchor chart being used. They also made a suggestion for the paper using the anchor chart. If you would like to meet with your writing partner for help, make an appointment to meet in Ms. Faircloth's room for Homeroom and you can get help from your WP.
