This week we toook our wishes that we made and voted on which ones we all would like to have. We then wrote a story together using the top three wishes. Those of us that could write all by themselves also wrote their own stories.

This week we did a project with genies and wishes. We were given a piece of paper and asked to write down three wishes on it. We then took those three wishes and either wrote a story with all three or three individual stories.

We did a project with our names this week. We wrote our names vertical on a piece of paper and came up with words that described us that began with each letter of our name. We worked together, inlisting the help of everyone, to come up with ideas. This went really well and they had a lot of fun!
We also worked on writing some more stories, Halloween and otherwise, for our paper.

We did a project with our names this week. We wrote our names vertical on a piece of paper and came up with words that described us for every letter of our name. We got some really great words! They then were able to decorate their paper.
I had one child tell me that he wished his name had an "R" in it somewhere because if it did he would have put down that he was respectful or responsible. How cute!

We continue to work on our newspaper. We have some really good stories, even if they are short. The kindergardeners have drawn some pretty awesome pictures and told the stories that go with the pictures. We will hopefully have the newspaper out within the next week to share with the whole Center.

Awesome Authors!
Awesome Authors is an after school club at Kids R Kids. In this club we will be exploring the ways of writing. We will be writing poems, sonnets, short stories, newspaper articles, essays, longer stories, profiles, plays, and conducting interviews. When it comes to writing, anything goes! Anything that the children want to write, we will explore. We will be taking all of the things that we write and learn and putting them into a newspaper that we will put out once a month. Those children that can't write yet or are having trouble with the writing will draw a picture and then dictate to me the story that the picture is conveying.
