I am struggling to get my students to write quality letters within their reader's notebooks. It's December and they are still simply giving me summaries. I ask them questions and give comments in my letters back to them yet most of my kids aren't responding to my questions/comments. I've gone to giving the kids grades and their grades don't even seem to motivate some of them to do better. We've written sample letters together, I've shown them examples, I've written examples for them, I've given them letter starters. What do I do next? The kids seem to just want me to give them worksheets to complete - they don't want to think.
Help please,
Jenni
