Journal Writing

I would have loved to post some pics of the 100th day today.  Unfortunately our classroom was the black hole of technology today.  My iPhone kept shutting down every time I went to take a picture.  Instead I am posting some pictures of us journal writing. 
 I like the students to have a writing partner.  

• The kindergarteners first draw a picture.  
• Then they share (talk about) the picture with their partner.  
• Then the students write about their pictures. 
•  After writing is finished they work with a partner to use a rubric to check their work.
