Susan's lesson

Thanks Susan, you did a good job! I liked the rewrite then ending part the best. When we went around the room and talked about how to modify and I am going to "borrow" for my class. I want to use the rewrite the ending for some stories and then we can look at the characters and what choices make sense for that character. I also like the idea of looking at the different endings to talk about author's choice. Finally, coloring! I need to make the art boxes available at their desks and not on a table that sets it apart from the rest of the class. Thanks for the reminder that coloring and children's books are good instructional tools.
