Author's Chair

My class loves sharing their writing in the "Author's Chair". This week we practiced capitalizing the first word in a sentence, adding a period and writing all of the other words/letters in the sentence with lower case letters (unless it's a word from our "What Gets a Capital Letter" chart). Each student that shares first reads his/her sentence and then shows the class their illustration. We give each author a compliment on his/her writing before the next student shares. We are becoming authors and illustrators!
