The first button will take you to my Edmodo site. This site connects me with my students, as well as educators from all over the world. Students and parents are able to go online and see what is assigned, or in one class I have an RSS feed that feeds directly to our site. Students can log on and read through the writing information. We use the exact book from this site. Students can choose which writing activity they would like to complete.
The second button will take you to one example on The Writing Forward feed.
The third button will take you to Storybird. I am attaching one of my storybirds. My students also write stories on this site. It helps them practice their writing while using their imagination and creative juices.
