Building a Literary Community

“Shared stories can build communities, change relationships, and get students caring about one another.”  ( S. Harwayne)








We will spend next week sharing stories.  Tonight you will find an artifact (object) that has a story, like my button jar.  It is important for you to choose an object that you know all the details to its story. Be prepared to tell the story during workshop next week.  You might want to practice your story by telling it to someone in your family. 

You will need to bring your artifact back to school on Wednesday, in the story telling bag.   If it is fragile you will need to wrap it in newspaper.  Have fun!
