September 18th-22nd

Writer's Workshop:

This week we continued to work with the EET tool we call "Eetchy."  The second page of each student's assignment book also has a "Parent or EET Home-Helper Information Sheet."  It explains how to use the tool.  
Last week the students wrote what they knew about a banana, guitar, chair and clock.  This week they wrote about them again using the Eetchy.  They analyzed the difference between the two sets of writing and saw how much they improved just by using the Eetchy.  This tool helps them to organize their thoughts while they put them on paper.  In addition, it helps them create a more descriptive paragraph.
We also worked on story webs and wrote fun stories using story starters.  I can't wait to read their stories.
