Writing:
We do all types of writing in kindergarten to get us ready to be life long writers. The Treasures curriculum allows us to work on letters and sounds. We work up to applying what we know in a Writer's Workshop format. We encourage our young writers to take chances and stretch the sounds they hear in their stories. We are very positive about any writing they get on the page. Developmentally, they grow through the year thropugh the stages of writing. By the end of our kindergarten year, most students will be able to write a full sentence and more. It is so exciting to l0ok back through our Writer's Notebook
