Writer's Workshop-

Word Choice

Students are trying to think carefully about the words that they use in their writing. They are working on painting a picture in the reader's head and finding new words to replace our old, boring, regular words.

ex. stroll instead of walk.

We are learning to use a thesaurus to broaden our vocabulary in writing.

Voice

Students are working on adding personality and style to their writing by expanding their voice. Its a way to allow the writer's personality to come through the writing. It is a combination of feeling, style and connection.

Lesson 1:

Read Students the book "Hey, Little Ant" by Philip and Hannah Hoose

It's a story about a kid who is a bout to squish an ant but the ant is trying to convince him not to do it with good convincing arguments.
