Writing Process and a Haunted House

PRE-WRITING

• Paragraph about Frank the main character done. 
• Sensory poem about their  Haunted House, the setting  done.   
  

After brainstorming problems and solutions the children completed their Graphic Organizers. 

• G.O. Chart done!
  

​Whew! all the prewriting is now complete for their stories! 

ROUGH DRAFT

​The children began writing at their offices pulling it all together.

EDITS

​Once the children have completed their rough drafts the editing begins. I require two editing steps. A student edit where each child picks a special editing pen and checks their own work. The teacher then edits in a different color pen. We also use post its as a tool to add more text.

​FINAL DRAFT & PUBLISHING

​For this project the children will be publishing their work with Book Creator and showing the class  their final draft on the LCD TV. They are excited.
