News & Announcements

student writing at desk

“Writers, go write!” student teacher Sean Fitzsimons told second graders as they worked on their writing projects. One student started work on a cover for her book about coloring. Another story was about a boy and his dog, who was trying to get a treat.

Students at Lakewood Elementary showed off their writing to their families during a Writing Celebration this week after going through the process of brainstorming an idea, planning, drafting, and editing. Students also had the opportunity to create a cover for their work. As they learned the differences between fiction and nonfiction writing, students also practiced correct capitalization, punctuation and spelling.
