Welcome back Creative Literacy students! It was a long, beautiful and hot summer, but here we are, back in session! As we ease into a new year, students started simply by writing about their summer vacations. Students either brought in pictures, found some online of places they have been to or drew pictures. They reviewed how to write a well-written paragraph and how to include all three parts.
See pictures below:
While all three grades participated in the summer vacation assignment, we have now just started branching off into our different units for each grade. 8th grade has started working on their imitation of Sandra Cisneros' "My Name." Although I wish they had finished their drafts for back to school night, students did a really great job on their first paragraphs which are displayed below.
6th and 7th grade students are also working hard on their projects, but nothing to post yet! We are in the editing stage of the 7th grade Identity poems and 6th graders are still brainstorming their 6 word memoirs. Check back soon to see those awesome projects!
