Today I had a great morning. The picture prompts technique was really good. I felt as if I were Gabriel Garcia Marquez or any other inspired writer, I could not help but keep on writing.Thanks for sharing it with us, Fatimah!
In the afternoon I felt a little lost in Digital, but I will catch up, these are useful tools.

A very enjoyable activity, a story writer myself, I could feel the joy of sharing my hobby with classmates this morning, however as a teacher I know it is not always that easy for students to elaborate a thought and as a group activity scaffolding with a picture and other's writing was a perfect way to help students produce.  I personally feel impelled to use it in my classes!

My story was about a maze.... What would you write about?

Writing with Fatimah!

I have enjoyed the writing activitiy done this morning with Ms Fatimah Daud very much. I see that this offers many  advantages.  It let students  to write with freedom. It also engages  them in the activity as they have no barriers to create. Students try to do their bests as they are aware  that  their  writing will be read by their partners. This activity also promotes cooperative work in the classroom and keep students writing and writing. In this way this writing strategy becomes very useful, and very fun. 

I really enjoyed the writing activity in the morning. It was full of creativity and wisdom. It actually motivates students to free writing and the idea of becoming author of our own stories gives us the motive to write.

PIC PROMPTS

 Reflection about the "PIC PROMPTS"

Creating engaging activites can be a useful tool to help our students be interested in learning and go beyond. Everything depends on the teachers'. If the teacher comes up with meaningful activities, the students will be eager to learn. That is our objective as teachers. Besides, there are many interesting resources to be found, we only need to take our time to surf the internet.
If you are interested in checking extra activities in writing. Help yourself!!!!

I loved the activity today! I can definitely see myself using this kind of activity with my students.  I was thinking about using comics for easy writing for my middle school classroom. I found this page online, it gives you step by step details on how to teach writing!
