Classroom Stitches #SOL18 #26/31

I am joining Two Writing Teachers for the Slice of Life Story Challenge.  I appreciate this space for writers to tell their stories and connect with each other.




Today, I use Eileen Spinelli's Poem of the Month, "Winter Stitches" as a mentor.  I had just happened to pop into a third grade classroom when they were getting ready to write their Slice of Life stories.  I quickly went to get my computer and settled in next to them.  Oh, how I miss writing with young writers.

  2. Even though you're not in the classroom anymore, I adore the fact that you're still popping into classrooms to hear about the lives of young writers (Slicers!).

  7. Julie, I love this. I waited until I finished my post to pop over to see what you had written. I love the way you took the thinking into a new context and wrote. I went toward thinking about seasons, and you moved toward thinking about stitches. There is probably a lot more variability and possibility in stitches. I love the way you published your poem on a background. You make me want to go back and revise.
