Kayla wrote the shell of this (so basically a simple sentence about the Christmas tree, making gingerbread men, and that she loves reading Christmas books) early on in Advent. We then, made it into a writing lesson as I showed her some other writing and we discussed adding more details and using exciting verbs and adjectives to make a story more interesting to the reader. I love her final draft and I'm so proud of her for sticking with it and creating something that we will certainly treasure for years to come.
I love this :) Go Kayla!
