The students in all three classes last year collaborated ideas to make
this list...it by no means will be our final, comprehensive "NO-NO"
list of the year...you will learn why we do what we do in writing all
throughout the school year. You WILL be a writer...you ARE a writer!
The ideas behind this list are based off of our fourth grade
expectations, distict curriculum, and state TEKS to 1. mold them into
better writers and 2. prepare them for the state standardized test.
