Today we came to the first "bend" in our narrative writing unit. We have been using the new units of Study from Teachers' College. After a few weeks of writing small moment stories, the children used a red pen to edit one of their finished pieces. And then, like a museum, the students put out their work and invited their friends to stop by and read their completed story.
After looking at each other's work, the students compared their own baseline pieces to their finished piece and discovered that they has really grown as writers. A few years ago I would never have imagined that first graders could do this type of peer review or self-assessment but today, they did! Thank you, Lucy!

I am so impressed when I see self and peer evaluation/revision in action especially with such young learners. Can't wait to come by and read their writing!
