Surprise! I have another… Yesterday was Weston’s birthday. He was spoiled with new treats and toys. See the box on the right? It’s doggie ice cream!…
I know it’s Wordless Wednesday but first I have to say Happy Birthday to my amazing husband! He is so talented, caring, sweet, and super supportive…
Today will be the only Wednesday that I type more than one sentence for you. That is because today is the first day of my Wordless…
Since I am headed back to first grade next year, I have been going back and forth trying to decide what to do with my blog’s…
Do you de-clutter your classroom at the end of the year and give things away to your students? I always “raffle” off the odds and ends…
I got up super early this morning so that I could get work done today. It’s rainy, yucky, and chilly outside, which means it’s the perfect…
I love narrative writing because it gives students a chance to use their imaginations and let us into their world that they are creating inside. Love your link-up every week.

I love them all! In regards to your question, is that cheating? Do I have to pick only one? 😉 I say "all of them" because they allow me to see the different aspects of each child's writing abilities. Thanks for hosting the link up! I gave a shout-out reminder of the link up on my IG account. 😉

I do like them all and while I'm looking forward to seeing the instructions my class are about to write I think I like narrative best. They always come up with such sweet and surprising ideas that are all so different!

Off to check out more Wordless Wednesdays…. LOVE this linky! Thanks for hosting it!

Great start to a story! I like all of them really. If I had to pick one, I think it would be informative. I love seeing the words they come up with to tell me facts about the topics we have been studying. In kinder they can't always remember those "big" scientific words so it can be quite comical. Thanks for hosting this great linky!

Narrative is fun to see the kiddos "creative" side, informational is "easier" for them, but I LOVE to see the progress from beg. of the year to the end! Wendy 1stgradefireworks@gmail.com 1stgradefireworks
Persuasive – I ask my students to persuade me to let them have a special day (e.g., movie day, pj day, gum day) I get my best work out of them during this writing focus
