*The+Writer's+Notebook

The Notebook The writer's Notebook becomes a place for students to "grow" ideas and develop their writer's craft. Students use the skills they learn during the Writing Workshop mini-lesson to improve their writing and create new stories. These ideas and stories will be written in the Marble Composition book and should not be ripped out.

 It is from these notebooks that students choose one entry each month that they want to publish. After sharing the entries and receiving feedback from members of their writing clubs, students take these entries out of the notebook so that they can be revised and improved.
 * ** Publishing **

 Once a draft has been completed and students have conferenced with me in the final step of the editing/revising process, students publish their final copy of the story. Students may choose to type or handwrite their stories.
