Hi. Can you give me any insight on Evan's short story yesterday? We couldnt clearly interpret from him whether the story was appropriate or not. He was very proud of it when he read it to me last night and I told him we would have to work on it this summer. He said the end of the story was a second part about alien invasion. BUT I really would like to know what your reaction was because he wasnt clear on it.... Well neither are we!! Thanks muches.

FROM TEACHER TO ME:
Jen,
After finishing his assigned work Evan chose to write and illustrate a book on his own. It was a free writing time and when he was done he stood in front of the class and shared it. I understand the concern about the topic, however it seems that right now he is very interested in "Army" as he tells me. He did sensor the word knives and said that it was not appropriate for school. Those were his exact words! :) I was very pleased with his effort and success with it! Not my favorite topic, but that's ok!
This summer I would suggest using writing prompts and then also allow for free time to share his interests as well.
I am so happy that he felt proud of himself!
Lesley
