Stories Come to Life: A Celebration of Writing in 4th & 5th Grade! (PHOTOS)

Our 4th and 5th-grade students recently completed their first writing unit, focusing on narrative writing. They practiced crafting true stories from their own lives, learning to capture small, meaningful moments with vivid action, dialogue, thoughts, and emotions. To make their stories come alive, they slowed down and added rich details to the most important parts. After drafting multiple stories, each student selected one to revise and edit with care. They put in impressive effort throughout this process, aiming to make their stories shine!

Once polished, students published their work as books and concluded the unit with a Celebration of Writing. Families were invited to see the students' journey from start to finish, celebrating their hard work and accomplishments. It was a wonderful learning experience and a joyful celebration! Take a look at our photos below.
