In writers workshop we have been writing about a topic we know a lot about. We learned that sometimes writers close their eyes, picture the topic they want to write about, and then put all the details into the pictures and words. We also learned that writers write words by saying the word slooooowly and then writing down the sounds they hear. We are studying Greece for our international inquiry this year! (aka help Ms. Kurland plan her honeymoon haha!) We will be delving into Greek geography, landmarks, culture, and traditions. If anyone has any Greek connections please let me know. We were able to FaceTime with my friend Ms. Kelsey who is in Greece right now and she showed us around the beautiful Greek island Lefkada and answered our questions about Greek food, desserts, the people, and places. We can't wait to research and learn more throughout the year!! We will be so ready for International Day and will be so knowledgeable on all things Greece. She showed us the Greek sunset!!
