We've successfully created our personal recipes in our writer's notebook and turned them in for an assessment today. Next week, in honor of Common Core Standards' Writing Across the Curriculum strand, my students are bringing to my language arts class their ideas for science-inspired recipes. Eventually, they'll all have a two-page recipe spread that resembles my teacher model.
To move those students brains towards their science recipes, I have dedicated next week's "Mr. Stick Metaphor" to the following metaphor:
I hope my metaphors of the week continue to inspire you--as well as my students! Our set of nine Writer's Notebook Bingo Cards are still available at our website...
Have a great week, fellow teachers!
