“I can write a story.”
Objective: To use inventive writing to write a story. (W.K.1)
Materials: journal, pencil, crayons
Procedures: Talk about places you have traveled together as a family. For a writing prompt, ask your child to write about a place she would like to visit. Encourage your child to use spaces between words, punctuation at the end of the sentence and to use letter-sounds that she hears in words. Then she will illustrate her story. Keep the journal in a safe place for her next story.
Conclusion: Have your child read her story to you again. Talk about the colorful illustrations and how her story makes you want to travel there, too!
