Our NaNoWriMo progress charts are filling up!
It's Week 3 of NaNoWriMo and I'm happy to report that almost half of the 5th grade has reached the 50% word count milestone and eight students have actually reached 100% of their word count goal.
In conferencing with students this week I'm hearing about the ups and downs of storytelling and have tried to give feedback to help keep the creative juices flowing and get stories back on the plot tracks students mapped out.
Right now we are 5% behind our friends at Browns River Middle School in Vermont and are hoping to make up ground over the Thanksgiving break. Let's keep writing!
