Small Moment Booklets
We are continuing to write Small Moment stories. Before they were ready to begin writing their Small Moment stories, they had to choose a topic and plan their stories in their watermelon booklet. The watermelon reminds them to take a large topic and pull out a tiny moment (seed) from that larger topic. Each page is labeled B,M, and E for beginning, middle, and end. The beginning should introduce their characters and setting. The middle should have a problem, and the end should be the solution to the problem. They simply jotted down a couple sentences for each part in their booklet. Then, they were ready to begin their stories. They are currently writing their stories, and elaborating on what they wrote in their watermelon booklet.

This is really cute! I use the watermelon seed idea when I teach small moments in the beginning of the year too! Thanks for sharing!

I actually just recently switched over to Google documents. Several people were having trouble downloading from Scribd. I added a link to the image above, so you shouldn't have any trouble downloading now!
