I AM a Writer

I'm so looking forward to Monday when my students will be scrapbooking the front of their Personal Writing Notebooks. Writing can be a scary intimidating subject for many students. My hope is to dispel any fears or moans and groans about writing, to help students take ownership of their notebooks, and to talk about the many forms of writing that they may end up loving. I will begin with the song "What I Am" for a little fun and motivation. We will have a discussion about WHO writers really are... and a discussion about what the Writer's Notebook is NOT.
