This week, Dawna had to write a play for her writer's workshop assignment. Her play is based on a story we read together called "The Meeting of the Mice." When we read it, she told me that she liked the beginning, but didn't like the end. So, I told her that she could base her play on the story and give it an ending that she liked. I think she did great. It was a new experience for her writing with only dialogue, but she still managed to get a story out. It has a beginning, middle, and end... and it includes a problem and a solution. Check. Meets first grade standards :)
Enjoy our play: How the Cat got it's Bell. (not sure if you can understand every word, but I think the gist of it comes through ok)
