    • Launching Writer's Notebook Sessions

      In class each day, we are gathering ideas, drafting small moment stories, or revising stories. These stories are about moments in our lives. This link provides a glipse of the mini lessons from our Writer's Workshop time.

    • Narrative Nonfiction Book List

      As talked about at BTSN, narrative nonfiction is a great way to introduce children to nonfiction and the forms of nonfiction through a story-telling format. This list highlights some of the more popular books children are talking about. Feel free to email additional recommendations to add to this list. We have started to discuss books in class, and have created a list of "Books I Want to Read" in our notebooks.
