Personal Narrative Publishing Celebration

We recently finished our writing unit on narrative stories, or stories from our lives.   We continued to focus on telling our stories through our illustrations, but we stretched our story over several pages to create books.  We used "The Story Hand" to be certain our stories included our characters, the setting, three details, and our feelings.  We also studied the work of other authors and illustrators while we walked in their footsteps to help make our writing com alive.  Some of the techniques we studied included the illustrator's point of view and speech bubbles.  Books have already been sent home.  I hope you enjoyed your little author's hard work!

Below are some pictures of students sharing during our Publishing Celebration!











And of course they always want to take a silly picture!!
