Imagination is the heart of our writing project this week! Although we haven't had much snow this winter, we did enjoy a few flurries on the perfect day... the day that we read
The Snowman by Raymond Briggs. After sharing the illustrated, wordless version of the story with the class, we read aloud the written version. The children compared and contrasted the two stories. It was a lot of fun to hear the imaginative stories that were created through the wordless version of the book. This week, the third graders will be creating their own snow stories with words
and illustrations! We will focus on using descriptive details and establishing a clear beginning, middle, and end in our stories.
