Many of my students are English Language Learners. These books help them learn vocabulary in context, not in isolation.

We have used many of the supplies in our shared writing time. This is when I model writing, and the students share the pen to write. We have also used the writing and illustrating materials to create our personal narrative and informational texts. Students go through the writing process to write, edit, illustrate, and publish their books. We then invite our families to attend our publishing parties where each student reads his or her book.
