Day 11 February 23,2010

Today in class we were involved in collaborative story writing with fifth graders. The fifth graders started writing a story, and we had to add on to it. This is a good activity because it helps to give them ideas of where to take their story to next. Each Indian has either 3 to 4 people who are commenting on their story, and giving them ideas. Then each fifth grader will pick which comment they liked best to add on to their story. I think that this activity fits into the Life and Career Skills under Flexibility and Adaptability by incorporating feedback effectively. I think that this would be a good project to be involved in when I become a teacher because it will get my students involved with sharing ideas to each other. Also, they could get ideas from other children from different schools. This would be a good way to get students more excited about writing and to get them more involved.
