We have been hard at work during Writer's Workshop.
During our first five weeks of Kindergarten we focus on drawing.
During this unit we are:
learning about writer's workshop
using a variety of tools
developing on our fine motor skills
studying authors and illustrators and the creative choices they make
learning how to fill the white space
practicing drawing {lines, shapes, people, animals, buildings, and more!}
using details
adding speech bubbles
and more!!
I have done many drawing posts in the past, you can check them out here:
We capture many of our drawings from mini-lessons in our Doodles and Drawings book.
Find that here:
I updated this product over the summer - so there are 2 versions Funky and Kinder friendly.
You can find more on that HERE.
I was SO PROUD of my growing writers as they shared what they had learned with their guests at our 1st writing celebration.
They *ARE* listening, woohoo!
We have been studying Mo Willems and we're totally bonkers about Pigeon. We've loved all of his books, especially Pigeon Needs a Bath and Pigeon Finds a Hot Dog.
We had a fun "Hot Dog Party" to celebrate our writing. It was LOVELY to see so many writers curled up with their families around our classroom.
