Glow and Grow Publishing Party, October 21st @ 9:30 am

Picture
Join the writers of Class 344 as they celebrate their first journey through the writers process. The students have brainstormed ideas about special "first time" memories; they rehearsed their stories orally with their writing partners; they wrote their first drafts including the elaboration that they worked so hard to include in their storytelling; they revised to include sensory details and thought-provoking titles; they edited to enhance the readability of their stories; and they published their writing to share with the world. 

This first publishing party of the year is themed "Glow and Grow" to emphasize the importance of the process and goal setting, as well as to celebrate the students' early accomplishments.  At the publishing party, the students will also unveil their name research writing.


When: Thursday, October 21st; 9:30 am - 10:15 am

Where: Chelsea Prep Class 344

Who: All family members are invited.  We will also invite other students at school to share in our celebration.



Glow & Grow Celebration Invitation

We know we’re just beginning,
We know the path is long,
But to skip a publishing celebration?
Well, that just seems so wrong!

We’ve finished the writing process,
Our very first time through:
Collecting entries, drafting, revising,
Editing, and publishing too.

After our very first attempt,
We’ll celebrate our start
At living writerly lives
And exploring our writers’ hearts.

This celebration starts a journey,
With so many ways to grow,
But for one brief hour,
We’ll take this chance to glow.

Please come join Class 344 at our very first author’s celebration as we share our first personal narratives.  The theme of our celebration is “Glow and Grow” at this early stage in this year’s writing trajectory.

When: Thursday, October 21st, 9:30-10:15 am
Where: Room 344
