LEA - The entire class shared an experience with a trip to the wetlands and the breaking open of a cat tail. Students were grouped in pairs that were chosen based on complimentary strengths and weaknesses. Each pair had to come up with at least 2 things to share about the experience. Every member of the class contributed to this story. I wrote exactly as the students dictated and later we edited our writing as a class focusing on beginning, middle and ending of a story and gramer. The Promethean board was used to write the story and to edit the story. Later students were asked to illustrate the story by drawing a pictures associated with the cat tail opening up. We then created the combination of writing and illustrations and published the book in Youblisher.
