Beautifying 2B!

Many thanks to the Okenquists for transforming the bulletin boards outside of 2B into a beautiful backdrop for our descriptive writing unit! Amber, Syd and Jake spent much time making the space outside of our room something to be proud of. Our fall landscape will complement the writing students are diligently and creatively producing in Writer's Workshop. They have been applying numerous taught strategies for lifting the quality of their writing in elaborative ways--using onomatopoeia, sensory imagery, and careful word choice to paint a picture in readers' minds. Stay tuned for their published pieces to debut in a few weeks, dotting the landscape the Okenquists dreamed up!
