them read it again.\u00a0 Then we had a discussion about ways that we could have made our writing better.\u00a0 They came up with a lot of great ideas such as more description, neater writing, spelling, adding more words, and putting spaces between words.\u00a0 We also talked about using these ideas each week on the writing section of the homework.\u00a0 These discussions will continue as we start to write drafts and edit our stories for the author&#8217;s study.\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item
