Now I am at the stage of collecting student writing and images - ie - piloting the resources to create LEAD SCHOOLs writing on some blogs [= awesome student writing that later bloggers will emulate].
Would anyone like to work with a small group of Upper Primary or Lower Secondary [Stage 3 and 4] students on one of the projects below? Maybe in an enthusiastic writers lunchtime club? They might like to know it's a "world first"/"premiere" that they are contributing to?
I would be SO GRATEFUL - I need some Term 4 trialling before I launch the resources properly with workshops in 2013. My phone number is 0421997561 if you are able to assist and would like more info.
Pilot projects 1. NARRATIVE writing: 1-2 paragraph pieces on a Stage 3 and 4 English blog at http://hatsboxesmagicmoon.edublogs.org for the Hats, boxes, magic, moon image card resources at http://imagesandwritingideas.webnode.com/. You download all the IMAGES and WRITING PROMPTS by clicking on the DOWNLOAD tab & clicking on the folder through to Skydrive. Look up to TOP MENU - FOLDER ACTIONS - DOWNLOAD to bring all the word docs into your computer as one file.
