Story Writing...Oh My...

I have to say what an amazing week it has been in writing! This week we began discussing simple stories with a beginning, middle, and end. The children had to draw a 3 picture story and then add words and/or sentences to describe the pictures. I was amazed how hard the children worked and the stories they were able to write. This week the focus was on choosing one topic and drawing the 3 pictures to tell the story on the topic. Next week, we will delve further into story writing by choosing one topic and taking the one topic to sequence even further by making it cohesive. Since this was the beginning of story writing I decided when I was talking with the children, I concentrated on making sure they were only writing on one single topic and having them think about first, second, and last. I hope your child has mentioned this to you at home because it was a wonderful sight to see in the classroom. If you have not checked out our You Tube Channel (www.youtube.com/mrstahlkindergarten) please do as you will see a few stories uploaded. In addition, here are some pictures of the children working hard...
