Writing Partners Working Together

One of the students's favorite writing activities is working with a partner. During this time,they get to share their writing, ask for ideas, and give/receive compliments on their work. Children are writing "All About" books in whatever subject they are an expert in which includes hiking, sports, theme parks, and dance. Their reports include an Introduction, Table of Contents, How To page, Information and Conclusions. Writing with a partner helps children to build relationships and trust with their first grade friends.
