Launching
Writing Workshop
As we launch Writing Workshop students will:
1. learn the procedures for Writing Workshop in 2EM.
2. learn and follow the writing process: think, plan, rehearse, write, reread, repeat.
3. write many small moment stories.
4. use our class Word Wall to spell high frequency words correctly.
5. learn how to elaborate their small moment stories by adding dialogue, inner thinking, action, and feeling.
6. study mentor texts to improve their own writing.
