Publishing Night

We finally had our Publishing Night last Thursday and the event was a success!

I set up our classroom with the kiddos' stories on their tables.  Every story had a cover page and an "About the Author" page on the back with the author's picture.  Around the room I put the anchor charts and Mentor Texts we used during our Personal Narratives Unit.  As the kiddos and their families entered, I encouraged them to read and share their stories and then to leave "Notes for the Authors."

This turned out to the best part of the evening!  The kiddos' notes to their friends were too cute!
Note 1:  It is 2nd the 1st best.
Note 2: Jack, It sounds like you had fun on Thanksgiving. Try a little more finger space. Your friend, Jude
Note 1: I love the colors. From Cate
Note 2: You taked (sic.) your time and added details. Nice Story.


On Friday morning the kiddos were so excited to read the notes they received on their stories!
