You Are Invited…

To join my class and me on a journey as we learn more about author craft. Each week we will explore a big book during shared reading instruction. The first reading will be for enjoyment but subsequent readings will be quests for what is near and dear to the author’s heart, the structure of the text, word choice, punctuation choice, etc. I will blog each week about what we have unearthed by digging deep.
My hope is…for children to observe and experience the special techniques author’s employ. They will attempt to implement some special craft in their own writing. We will post our findings on a display outside our classroom door. Please check it out when you go by.
This blog will be updated each week (over the weekend).
