Last week, because it was a short week, we reviewed On Demand writing skills. We started out by writing a letter to a future fifth grader on Wednesday. The students had a plethora of ideas about responsibilities as fifth graders that someone would need to know. They did a wonderful job writing their letters. Thursday, we introduced a new strategy-Peer Editing. Students were given a checklist to work through with a partner to make sure that they have everything they needed in their writing piece (hook, thesis, topic sentences, strong finishes, etc.). The students did a wonderful job helping their friends to make their pieces better. We look forward to more opportunities to help our friends become better writers!
