CLASSROOM SOLSC FOR STUDENTS: DAY 13 OF 31

Welcome to Day 13 of the 4th Annual Classroom Slice of Life Story Challenge!

Today marks the start of Daylight Savings Time- are your students “springing ahead” in the Classroom SOLSC? Are they getting into the groove of daily writing?

Some of my students are starting to complain they have no more ideas for writing. Others have been writing about the same thing each day and might benefit from trying out a new topic. I am planning on making a jar of inspiration with some writing prompts and ideas, folded up like little fortune cookies. How are you helping students to get fresh ideas for daily blogging?

Gamifying the Classroom Slice of Life Challenge has added to the excitement and motivation! One of my students already earned ten badges!

Reminders:

1. If you haven’t read the Essential Information post, then please click here to read it now before you post the link to your students’ slice of life stories. Don’t forget to keep your students’ identities anonymous for their protection.
2.  If your students are slicing from their personal blogs, then you should link their blog posts together using your classroom or personal blog. Then, share the permalink to the location of the “round up” of student slices. (Click here for more information on how to do this.) Individual students CANNOT link here directly. Students who are under 18 must have an adult linking for them. Any student links left without an adult link will be deleted.
3. Only post the link to your students’ slices of life here. Do not post the link to your personal slice of life stories here. Go to the daily call for individual slice of life stories to post your personal slice.
4. If this is the first comment you’ve left on Two Writing Teachers, then we will have to moderate your comment. We will be checking throughout the day in order to get your links up for the community as soon as possible. As long as you use the same username/email to log in going forward, your comments should appear instantly in the future.
5. Any questions, please contact one of us.
