Journaling-What It’s All About
“I journal to understand my life as I’m living it. I use my journals as a place to put the things that spill out over the edges of my life: photo negatives, scraps of paper, poems I have heard and loved, my sorrow, and epiphanies, the true and the questions. My journals have become guideposts for my life. Maybe it’s the same way for you, and so I invite you inside my world. With this journal, you can create the book you most want to find.”
- Sabrina Ward Harrison
Writer’s Notebook-
A Writer’s Notebook gives students a place to write every day…to practice living like a writer. The purpose of a notebook is that it provides students the practice of simply writing. It’s a place for them to generate text, find ideas, and practice what they know about spelling and grammar. It’s the act of writing — the practice of generating text and building fluency– that leads writers to significance.
