I asked my student to write me a story for the second one because she had just written a narrative about her pet for the first one. She looked at me a little confused and asked, "A story? Like a book?" and then she was much more nervous about to write than previously. She kept asking me if something was good enough or not. I thought it was cute, but I also kept thinking about how what we learn in class is actually true!!! Not all students come in knowing the differences between genres and such. I don't remember ever not know what a story was, or what a biography was, etc. but the teachers are actually right! I love it when things we learn in class actually help us with the students, it makes me feel so much more prepared :)<br />Ok I got slightly off topic, but oh well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
