We suggest that you begin this unit with an on-demand writing assessment that allows you to see what students already have in their repertoire for narrative writing. You may decide to use the same prompt that you will use for the Spring On-Demand Writing Assessment, which will be administered district-wide during the week of May 22 – May 25, 2017. See the directions on the Kindergarten On-Demand Writing Assessment page of the Literacy Coach Website.
