Writer's Workshop
March
IN KINDERGARTEN WE USE PHONETIC SPELLING! Students are encouraged to stretch out words by writing the sounds they hear in words.
This month students will...
-continue to practice stretching out and writing sounds we hear in words.
- continue writing How- To stories
Example: How to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich:
First, you take out the bread.
Next, you spread peanut butter on one slice.
After, that you spread jelly on the other slice.
Last, you put the slices together and eat it!
-use the word “you” in their How- To stories to reach their readers.
(Ex: first you, then you)
-add tips, warnings, and suggestions to their How- To stories.
(Ex: don’t forget to…, be sure to…, be careful when…)
-learn how write introductions and conclusions to help their readers understand their how-to topic even better.
-continue to work on making their writing easy to read by:
Stretching out words and writing the sounds in the word
leaving spaces between words
making pictures that match their words
using lowercase letters unless uppercase are needed
adding punctuation at the end of the sentence
