This last week the students wrote about their prefect garden. Imaginations ran wild so that there are gardens with chocolate bunnies, blueberry roses and fairies who dance at night. We worked together to publish the writing using an app called Book Creator. The students received help with their spelling but were responsible for the sentence structure and conventions. For most students this was their first experience typing their work on an iPad. It was up to each child to decide if they wanted to take a picture of their original garden drawing or use the iPad to illustrate their work. I have embedded a copy of the book below and provided a PDF copy below that.

I am so happy to see and read about the days via this blog! We hear small bits, but the blog fills in a lot of gaps for us. The students are learning so much...and having so much fun while they are learning! Thank you for all of your hard work!!!

Thanks for the feedback Gail. I'm glad you enjoy the blog! I love being able to share the student's learning and progress with families so regularly.

Super job Division 11. I want to visit all of your gardens. I enjoyed reading all of the descriptive details, examples and feelings you added to your writing to make your garden a special place for you as well as interesting to read about.
