We have been reviewing some writing basics and warming up our writing muscles these first 2 weeks of school. We have learned several techniques writers use to get ideas from heart maps to list making. Our first writing goal is to utilize topic sentences and effective conclusions (NOT That's all I have to say!!!!) Many students have shined with their ability to create paragraphs. Here is Cidney's example; leave her a comment with some helpful feedback.
A Perfect Saturday
On my perfect Saturday, I would stay up late and eat some chocolate and candy. Some people would prefer to be a couch potato, I do that sometimes. My favorite thing to do on a Saturday is to go to Starlite. The place is amazing. They have roller skating, lazer tag, and an unlimited indoor playground. Also, I love to go to the movies to check out what is new. A perfect Saturday spent. What a day!
Don't you just love her sentence variety and details? Being a grammar teacher, I also love that she knows how to use commas correctly.
