Edition 2019 We thank Michael Rosen and Helen Oxenbury, authors of “We’re going on a bear hunt�, for the inspiration from the book. Thank you, teachers, for helping us and giving ideas for the book. Thank you, families, for supporting us so we could write this book; thanks for the attendance. The process was a challenge because it was very difficult to write this book; there were four steps: 1. We read the book and got the reference; 2. We wrote the first version of the book; 3. We reviewed the first version of the story, then we made the second version of the story with the correct sentences; 4. We illustrated and wrote the story in the computer. It was a long process, but it was so nice, and we had so much fun writing the book! Thank you for reading it!
PRESENTATION This is the process we went through during this year’s Young Writer Project. The first step for it was the choice of the book, and what better story than a classic about adventuring and observation? Thus, we chose “We’re going on a bear hunt”, by Michael Rosen. Our second priority was to make the children familiarize themselves with the book, and we did so by rehearsing a play with songs and rhymes. This play, as some of you might remember, was presented a couple of months ago to you, and I bet you can remember how well our students were performing! Third step was a bit more complicated, because we had to take it back to the book so we could start thinking about different versions of the story; that is when the third graders really raised the bar. They created amazing versions of this one adventure to fit their preferences, some talking about things they thought were cute, some appealing to the cool side of the story and others were even comedians in their writing. This step also required us, teachers, to intervene a little bit, by helping with a few grammatical structures that they wanted to use but were not yet familiar with them, since those were topics for the years to come. After revising the story a few times, what we could call step 3.5 was set in motion, with the kids typing their stories onto the computer, allowing them an opportunity to double check their stories for grammatical mistakes and for the content itself. Fourth was the illustration step, and our little artists really excelled at this challenge, as you all can see throughout this book; their drawings were fantastic and brought to life the tales that they wrote. As such, since they poured their little hearts on this book, we hope you can dive in and share with them these amazing adventure tales; we hope you enjoy, and thanks for reading this book!
