Journal Writing
Students will have a journal that they will write in every day for 10 to fifteen minutes. The topics or prompts range from having students explain the responsibilities a pet owner has, to telling about a time when they had a bad dream. Fridays will be free choice where students can write about whatever they want. During journal time students will work on the six traits of writing. Students will also be allowed to share their journal topic for the day to the class. This allows students to work on their speaking and listening skills.
