Sparks Coffee House


We finished publishing our personal narratives, and our classroom was transformed into Sparks Coffee House on Thursday afternoon. We even had a surprise visitor! Each student shared his/her narrative and provided written feedback for two other authors. The links below are to each child's narrative on YouTube. The YouTube videos can only be viewed through the link; they are not search-able on YouTube. Enjoy!
