A visit from Uncle Chris!

This past Thursday and Friday our 4^th grade students recently received a fun visit from “Uncle Chris”. Students attended two hour long workshops each day on Thursday and Friday. These workshops assisted the boys and girls in the brainstorming process, with hooking introductions, writing “dyno-write” conclusions, making their sentences more detailed and so much more. The students loved every minute of each of the workshops and have a new spark when working on their writing. For more information about "Uncle Chris" be sure to visit his website! http://www.thestorywindow.com/
