Day 16 of #100DOSW18

Last night's post rambled so I hope that this one doesn't. I do want to quickly share my notebook with you though because it is so cute!

I adore polka dots so I had to have this one!

I bought this at a bookstore in Yakima, WA. It holds pens and sticks inside notebooks. HOW COOL!

Ideas to help get started with different prompts (love this!)

My cover page which I did before printing, cutting, and gluing everything in

I also had people ask why I was handwriting everything even though I was sharing online. Well, I tried doing some writing online last summer and I didn't love it as much as holding a pen and notebook and seeing my words flow. Plus, I have my students keep a notebook so I want to show my students how mine looks when I introduce writing notebooks in August.

Now for today's writing: 

It is based off of an excerpt from Long Way Down by Jason Reynolds which is a fabulous YA novel in verse. I inserted my name and rewrote it on page one and then added my reasons for why on page 2. I hope you enjoy!
