We are 3 days into the Nolan writing bootcamp! We began with two days of gallery walks of opinion and informative writing that resulted in productive conversations! Today, we are working on topic sentences and improving sentences by adding adjectives and adverbs. #hhsk8knights
After working with my bootcamp kids for almost 10 days, I am happy to say a lot of them understand how to analyze the prompt on their own! @HHSK8Knights
Ending the year reading “Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone”, going on a virtual field trip to Universal Orlando’s Diagon Alley and Hogsmeade, making wands and ending with snacks and first Harry Potter movie! Hoping to create more Potterheads today!! #hhsk8knights
Today we did a FSA writing gallery walk! They had to use the rubric to figure out what each essay scored. I heard so many great discussions from my students. #wegotthis@cside66#hhsk8knights

Today we took our FSA practice writing and did a gallery walk around the classroom to compare their tests against examples from the FSA website. They had to figure out which one matched their own writing. Tomorrow we are going to work on making their papers better! @HHSK8Knights
Sir Draco slept in and didn’t get to go to the Museum of Natural History with us but he is here with us to see the broadway musical Wicked! He is so excited! @HHSK8Knights #hhsflatknight#flcelebratesliteracy
