On June 13, three fourth grade classrooms at Park Avenue Memorial Elementary School in Amityville celebrated their published Realistic Fiction Narratives by transforming their classrooms into “Theaters of Themes.”
Students visited one another’s rooms for story “matinees,” leaving glowing reviews on golden tickets and ending with a festive Popcorn Bar. This joyful celebration not only highlighted their growth as writers, especially in using elaboration strategies, but also gave their multilingual learners a meaningful opportunity to shine.
