Today you learned that editing is hard work! However, we know it is going to pay off! You tackled a difficult task when you tried your hand at writing an idiom story - easier said than done, right? It is a perfect opportunity for us to take a piece of writing and work through several drafts so you can see how peer editing, revising, discussing, and thinking will truly improve your writing. Time sure flies in our class. I appreciate your hard work. I know not everyone got to the idiom sites but we will continue that next week. All of your stories had good thoughts and we are going to work together to make them better. You are such diligent workers and so helpful to each other. I know Ms. P's fifth grade class will enjoy hearing from you. We all celebrated Emily's excellent story and in celebration the next post will be dedicated to her! Way to go, Emily!
