Framing Our Writing

How do writer's organize their ideas?

Mrs. Zargaj enjoyed teaching us how to use a sequencing brain frame.  A brain frame is a strategy for learners to use to organize their thinking.  We are going to be using brain frames this year.  The sequencing frame helps us to put our thoughts in order and then add details.  We like brain frames as an alternative to a teacher made graphic organizer because students make them to fit their need's and they will be able to use frames long after third grade.
Here Mrs. Zargaj is using the sequencing frame to review the writing process.


W3.4 Produce clear and coherent writing in which the development, organization, and style are appropriate to task, purpose, and audience.

Here we are using the sequencing brain frame to organize our personal narratives.
