My friends got to share with their writing buddy and other friends in our class what they have been writing about. I'm trying to build confidence in the students so that when they share to the rest of the class they feel comfortable and confident. We made self portraits the first couple days of school. When they made these I told them they now need to think of themselves as writers. Everyone is a writer in this room. We were learning about how we sit next to one another and put our folder in our filing cabinet while the other friend shares. We take turns talking and listening to one another tell our story. We ask questions and give comments to the Friend that is sharing. I was amazed at how well they did with this! Kids love sharing about themselves and they LOVE showing off their work :) This was very rewarding to see!
