Best Part of Us

Inspired by our Best Part of Me activity, we wrote a Best Part of Us piece. We each had a classmate to watch sneakily for two weeks and notice great things about them. Then, we wrote about them and kept it a surprise. Today, we shared our writing pieces with the class. They made us feel warm and fuzzy!

Just like with the Best Part of Me responses, Grade 4's had to write 5 complete sentences and Grade 5's had to write 7. We brainstormed as a class different sentence starters to make our writing more interesting. We edited our work for capitals and periods, and conferenced with Ms Elder one-on-one to revise our ideas.

On Friday, we brought home both copies to share (the piece that we wrote ourselves and the one about us), along with our self and teacher-assessment. We hope they make you feel warm and fuzzy, too, just like this video: click here to watch the video.
