Finisher Fishbowl!

Have you heard about the finisher fishbowl?  We have writing buddies that help us look for tings to edit and revise anytime we "finish" a book.  The buddies job is to encourage the author with positive things they noticed and then ask questions about things that they don't understand.  Students move to the fishbowl with their partner independently during writing time.  The video is too large to load through blogger - please let me know if you have problems with cutting and pasting the address in the address bar!

I was able to catch a great example of writing buddies working together!  Thanks for sharing Megan and Camey.  Be sure to ask about your student's writing buddy.
