Kevin Henkes




This month I’m posting an entire writing unit as the ‘Spring 2011 Newsletter’. It focuses on using quality literature for children to model their writing after and then use it to springboard into their own writing style. I chose Kevin Henkes (since many teachers already own several of his books) and I’ve always enjoyed his style and voice.
Happy Writing!

(This unit can also be found under the Lessons tab and downloaded as a PDF.)
