At the beginning of the school year, our classes practiced writing techniques and began filling their writer's notebooks with many different ideas. A few weeks ago, we chose one of these short writings to be our "seed piece." We discussed how as a class, we would grow these pieces into long, beautiful stories that were ready to be published in our class book, the same way that one would love and nurture a seed into a big, beautiful plant. To help remind us why we are working so hard as we write each day, we each planted a seed into our own, personally decorated "flower pots." It is our hope that as our stories develop, we will watch our plants develop and grow.
