👨👧 Family Why:
Writing down memories to share forms a way for children to continue communicating with their peers during this time of isolation. To know others are in the same situation and what they are doing can help form ideas for others to do during this period of time we are not together in class. Rereading and hearing what they write helps to improve their writing. Retelling stories is an important skill for reading and comprehension.
