       This unit teaches students to plan and tell about their Show and Tell. They will put their ideas on paper by drawing, labeling, and to stretch out words to write even more sounds. They will write and add more details to pictures and stories as they continue to write and edit their writing.  This unit will transform kindergartners into inventive spellers, giving them the tools and strategies they need to approximate the high frequency words that are most meaningful for them in their own writing. The unit celebrates invented spellings as kids develop foundational skills, knowing that your front-and-center goal will be to persuade your kids that they can write and that they too can be members of the writing community.
