Personal Narrative Writing

 Last week we finished up our personal narrative writing.  We start all of our writing projects with a graphic organizer for the students to get their ideas down on paper.  Then we take our ideas and put them into complete sentences.  The students highlight the capital letter at the beginning of the sentence and the end mark.  Once this is complete, the students sign up for a teacher conference.  I meet with the students to go over their sentences to make sure they make sense and help with the spelling of any unknown words.  Then they get their final draft materials.  This book included a dedication page.  The class loves reading each other's books!
