Through this playful yet academic lens\, we&#39\;ll spark curiosity and cultivate a shared understanding of how handwriting transforms into expressive storytelling &amp\; writing using pictures - words - sentences.&nbsp\;</p><br/><br/><br/><br/><hr /><br/><br/><h3><strong>What It Is</strong></h3><br/><br/>The progression from handwriting to writing in Pre-K through 2nd grade focuses on building foundational skills that support the development of written expression. We&#39\;ll explore and build on strategies to help support this natural progression in early writing. We&#39\;ll look OSAS Achievement Standards and skilled writing strands (critical thinking/syntax/text structure/writing craft/transcription) that are woven into and evident in a skilled writer.&nbsp\;&nbsp\;<br/><br/><br/><br/><ol><br/><br/>	<li><br/><br/>	<p><span style="font-size:14px"><strong>Handwriting</strong>:</span></p><br/><br/><br/><br/>	<ul><br/><br/>		<li>The physical act of forming letters and numbers.</li><br/><br/>		<li>Focuses on fine motor skills\, pencil grip\, letter formation\, and spatial awareness (e.g.\, writing on lines and spacing between words).</li><br/><br/>		<li>Builds the muscle memory needed for automaticity\, freeing up cognitive resources for composing text.</li><br/><br/>	</ul><br/><br/>	</li><br/><br/>	<li><br/><br/>	<p><span style="font-size:14px"><strong>Writing</strong>:</span></p><br/><br/><br/><br/>	<ul><br/><br/>		<li>The process of generating ideas\, organizing thoughts\, and expressing them in written form.</li><br/><br/>		<li>Involves spelling\, sentence construction\, grammar\, and vocabulary development.</li><br/><br/>		<li>Progresses from labeling or simple phrases to complete sentences and eventually short paragraphs.&nbsp\;</li><br/><br/>	</ul><br/><br/>	</li><br/><br/></ol><br/><br/><span style="font-size:14px">&nbsp\; &nbsp\; &nbsp\;3. <strong><span style="color:#000000">Writing Intergrated with Science and Mathmatics K - 3</span></strong></span><br/><br/><br/><br/><ul><br/><br/>	<li>An opportunity to explore the intergration of math and literacy with our CESD Math Consultant -&nbsp\;Lori MaKenzie</li><br/><br/>	<li>An opportunity to explore the intergration of science and literacy with our CESD STEM Consultan - Angie Arends</li><br/><br/></ul><br/><br/><br/><span style="color:#8e44ad"><span style="font-size:16px">Who should attend?<br/>K-3 Educators - Literacy and ELL Specialsits/TOSA&#39\;s/Coaches&nbsp\;</span></span><br/><br/><br/><br/> For more information on this event\, go to https://pdnetworks.soesd.k12.or.us/public/events/view-event/13102/From-Scribbles-to-Sentences%3A-Guiding-Young-Writers-From-Handwriting-to-Writing-Success--------------------
