Writer's Workshop:
This week we started our "Historical Fiction" unit. The students will be writing a story using historical settings and elements. They will create fictitious characters that lived in the time period they are writing about. I look forward to reading their stories. They have come up with a lot of great ideas so far.
Next week I will read examples of historical fiction stories. We will analyze the characters, setting, and different elements of the stories. In addition, we will discuss how dialogue helps make the stories come alive.
Book Orders:
I will hand out book orders next Wednesday. They will be due back on the 26th of January.
