Example: The big bad wolf wanted to eat one of the three little pigs, but he was unsuccessful in his attempts to blow down a house so he climbed down a chimney.
Expert TeachersStudents set personal goals- they decide to become experts at an aspect of a lesson (i.e. strong ending, internal commas, hooks, paragraphs, activity directions...Whenever a student is absent or confused ask for an expert teacher. Students love to help their peers and will be attentive to teacher directions, so that they may get the chance to be the Expert.

Word of the Day
Mimic Writing
Students read multiple picture books
Notice author craft
Students choose a book or author to mimic
Students write their own story version
Celebrate the accomplishment
Choice Prompts/ Writing Derby
Allow students to choose between prompts for quick writes
Students generate writing for 5 minutes, then count words, and graph their progress (fast visual for student and teacher)
This can be extended later to any focus in writing (i.e. have students count mind-movie sentences or vivid verbs or helping verbs)
It is simple; students with a reluctance for writing will gladly play this basic “game.”
