6 Word Memoirs

For the past few days of Language Arts we have been focusing on memoirs.  First, we talked about the fact that a memoir is a memory or a collection of memories that tells someone’s life story or an important moment in the author's life.  A 6 word memoir is an extremely short and simplified memoir that can tell a person’s life, a memory, a defining moment, or a motto the author lives by.  Then, the girls had to read several different 6 word memoirs and infer something about each author. Next, the girls had to create their own!  They have been hard at work brainstorming, drafting, revising, editing and publishing their 6 Word Memoirs.  The girls can't wait for you to read them!
