The 2nd grade students have started to create fiction stories based on a couple story web sites to spark their imagination. The students have and will continue to work with either KerPoof or Picture Book Maker to create their story and print it out.
The students first came in and looked around at both web sites to get an idea of which story web site they wanted to focus their writing towards. They then started to jot down some of the characters, settings, problems and solutions related to the information provided on the 1 web site they wanted to create their story with. They worked in their 2nd grade classroom to create the story and now are working on transferring their information from a rough draft, paper format to a finished, computer printed format. They will be working on these for 3-4 cycles so it will be a work in progress to get finished before conferences. Please ask your students about them and check them out with their 2nd grade teacher during conferences.
