Slice-of-Life Publishing Opportunity for 3rd, 4th and 5th Grade Writers

Students are visiting the Writing Lab this month to explore writing about everyday life topics in personal ways.  Slice-of-Life writing takes on a first-person narrative stance and examines the truth of everyday life on paper. Students are learning first-hand how to pair words with topics that invite others to experience the daily events and situations that make up their ordinary lives.

Beginning Monday, May 9th and continuing throughout the month of May, student writers may submit Slice-of-Life stories to Mrs. Piccini for a chance to publish on the Heritage Blog. To submit Slice-of-Life entries for possible publication, students should email pieces in a typed attachment to vpiccini@franklinregional.k12.pa.us.  Samples of student work will be selected and posted each day during the month of May. As all work submitted can not be posted, Slice-of-Life writing that is not posted will be displayed in a designated Slice-of-Life hallway gallery where students and staff can view, read and enjoy throughout the month!

Please take a moment to ask your child about the Slice-of-Life topic he/she is currently working on. Be sure to visit the Heritage Blog beginning May 9th and throughout the month of May to read a few Slice-of-Life entries from our resident authors.
