4th/5th Teacher's Corner
Both 4th & 5th grades got to do some creative writing this month! The task was to write realistic fiction.
Fourth graders wrote about a character who was nervous about something. Fifth graders had to use a setting that included a location that interested them. Students planned their writing using graphic organizers and then telling their story aloud. First they recorded the story to share with their teacher, and then they told their story in their live ELA session. After getting feedback, on their plan, students typed their stories. Most of the stories were multiple pages!
Although story writing is fun, there are a lot of elements to consider. Students had to add sensory details that would help immerse the reader in the story. They had to incorporate realistic dialogue and punctuate it correctly! Additionally, they had to check spelling, punctuation, and grammar for the entire story. This was one of their favorite ELA projects this year, and it has been fun to hear their creative ideas!
