Welcome to Third Grade Writer's Workshop! Last week third graders had the opportunity to check out a sample Writer's Notebook, received their own notebook, and got started collecting ideas and writing true stories!
Our first writing unit is called Crafting True Stories. During this unit, students will collect and write several personal narratives (stories they experienced) and select one (maybe 2!) to take through the writing process (draft, revise, edit, publish). Our first lesson focused on a strategy writers can use when they aren't sure what they want to write about: Think of a person who matters to you! To use this strategy, jot the person you're thinking about on the page and then underneath list moments shared with that person. Finally, when you have 2 or 3 moments, choose one and start writing the story of it! Glimpse into 9/5 week: More strategies for generating ideas and Storytelling v. Summarizing
