Bend 1 Session 2 Growth in Pics

I am not feeling well tonight, but had to try to post some pics of the amazing growth from day 1 to day 2 of my students this year in writers workshop.  I am feeling more confident at teaching writing this year.  I captioned the photos to let them be my "voice" tonight.



We have read and discussed Freight Train by Donald Crews two times.

I was choking back some tears of joy.  What does it spell?
Flower!
