Personal Narrative:

Students are working on writing personal narratives.   The rubric states 2nd grade expectations and the sample piece acts as a mentor for the students to reference!  In addition, as writers, we learn from author’s craft.  We have been studying the craft of Jane Yolen of Owl Moon, Angela Johnson of The Leaving Morning, and Vera B. Williams of A Chair for My Mother.  Students can turn to these mentor texts for inspiration when they revise.   (CHECK BACK PERIODICALLY FOR MORE INFORMATION)
