Austin's Butterfly

Yesterday during Writer's Workshop we started working on revision and writing multiple drafts.  I showed this video "Austin's Butterfly" to model how to go about giving feedback and also that it's okay to be honest and get advice on how to make our work even better.  We create a chart together "criteria for success" (or how to do our best work) and all of these criteria were what kindergartners told me a writer needs to do.  They are truly amazing!  We are using this criteria for our writing and as suggestions to give each other feedback.  The goal is that everyone will have a typed published book to share in a couple of weeks!
