In the beginning of the year, second graders learned the reading comprehension strategy of Text-to-Self Connections. Text-to-Self connections allow readers to connect what they are reading to things that happen in their own lives causing them to better understand how a character might feel, or what a setting may look like etc.
After reading many books and practicing making connections, the students learned that writers may choose to write about these connections --"small moments," -- in their lives. This kind of writing is called a Personal Narrative. Personal Narratives are about real and meaningful moments. Teachers and students had the opportunity to showcase an object to the class that is associated with their very own special moment as part of preparing to write personal narratives!
In the coming weeks, students will generate their own list of small moments and choose one to draft, revise, edit, and eventually publish.
