Writer's Group at My School

I like writer's group at my school because it is fun and helps kids learn more about writing. It's for really good writers. The teacher is really nice and you also learn about illustrating your stories.

Homophones are very important in writing so I want to tell you about them. Homophones are words that are pronounced the same, but have different meanings. Sometimes they are spelled the same way, but usually they are spelled a different way. If they are spelled the same way, that means they are a homonym. Some examples for homophones are rose and rows, and, whale and wail.

Also, there are short stories that are fiction, small moments that are non-fiction and interviews. My favorite type of story is short stories because they can be as funny as you want them to be. In writer's group we get to share the stories we write and other kids can comment on them and ask questions. It's fun to hear other kids' stories because sometimes they can show you the other kid's personality and what they like to do. That is what writer's group is like at my school.
