Students in Mrs. Lucas’s kindergarten class celebrated the completion of their writing unit by sharing “campfire” stories with their third-grade book buddies in Mrs. Kline’s class. Kindergarteners proudly read stories they wrote themselves, while third graders offered thoughtful compliments and helpful suggestions. The “campfire” celebration was a fun and meaningful way for students to share their work, support one another, and celebrate their love of writing! #WilsonSD

Whitfield 2nd graders stepped into the role of real writers during their opinion writing unit by writing thoughtful letters to book authors! Students shared their opinions to various book authors on why their books are awesome, supporting their ideas with clear reasons and examples.Students were able to practice communicating their own thinking in an authentic way! By writing to a real audience, our learners were able to see the power of their writing and sharing their ideas. They also get to experience the joys of "snail mail"!  #WilsonSD
