Exchanging Personal Narrative Details
I love this picture of Clover and Langston so much because the way they are treating each other and their work show so much engagement and care.
The kids are learning how to cooperate and that means thinking together and listening to what someone else has created. The next step is to offer critical feedback to help them know if the work meets the criteria for what we are doing.
All these steps are a process. On this day, they were sharing the flow or chronology of their piece and making sure the problem and turning point are clear.
The class is heavy into the revision of this writing and soon hopes to be in the final stages. Be sure to ask your child about what life experience they picked to turn into their personal narrative assignment.
