One of the most important steps in Writer's Workshop is that of sharing with the class. Students share their stories from time to time by way of the Document Camera in our classroom. It is a time for the teacher to see if the mini-lesson taught is understood and gives those that didn't understand another look at the concept!
After the sharing, classmates give meaningful comments: "I like how you used punctuation", "You really stayed on topic". These comments validate the writing and encourages other writers to improve their own pieces.
The technology is a great tool for our First Grade Classroom.
