First graders in Kerry Crosby's classroom certainly understand how to be a good friend. Through the friendship unit, they learned about the qualities of a true friend through read alouds and class discussions and were then able to express their thoughts on paper. Take a look at two examples below.

Love the voice in this piece!

As the rubric is standards based, it is a solid indicator of students' strengths and also where future growth is needed.

Students were able to organize their thoughts using a graphic organizer.

As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words. Love the captions!

 Thanks for sharing Kerry!
