 Writer's Workshop: Narrative Checklist

Today, I am going to teach the kids to use the Narrative Checklist to make sure their story has all of the following components. (see picture)

Handwriting: Upper/Lowercase U & Sentence/Punctuation

Math: Subtraction Stories

We will work on more subtraction stories within 10 today. On Friday, the kids used a farm scene to lay the cubes on. Today, they have a pond scene with frogs to use for solving the story problems.
