Hint! Demonstrate these stories on the board or a large chart so children will be able to copy what you do on white boards or clip boards.
A SPRING WALK
Let’s put a green dot at the top of the page to show us where to start. And let’s put a red dot down here at the bottom to show where our story will stop. Pick up your pencil and let’s use it to tell a story.
It’s a beautiful spring day, so let’s go for a walk.
The grass is growing nice and tall.
The sun is shining in the sky.
The clouds are rolling around.
The insects buzz up and down.
The little rabbits hop around.
The kites are flying in the air.
All of a sudden, the wind starts to blow.
The wind is blowing in every direction.
Better run home as fast as we can!
Home at last!

*Make a tape of the story to put in a listening center.
Here's another pencil story about a walk in the zoo. Can you guess what the different symbols represent?

To help children have better control of their pencil give them a silly band or rubber band to wear on their wrist. Loop the end of the pencil through the band so it doesn't flip flop around.
I'm doing a free webinar next Monday 3/25 at 2pm. I know you'll be teaching, but if you sign up you can watch it anytime.
