"I'm Not Afraid of My Words!"

In Writer's Workshop, we continue to discuss how good writers never get discouraged, and never give up. When a writer forgets how to spell a word, s/he makes it up! Figuring out spelling on their own promotes independence and strategy use.

We've spent the past two weeks collecting celebratory spellings of words. These authors are proud that they tried to figure out the spelling of words, instead of stopping, getting upset, or needing someone to help them.
