Stop and Look!

In third grade, students are taught that as writers, they could change the world not just by looking at what's broken, but also by looking at what's beautiful. Writers write to get others to pay attention to noteworthy people that they might otherwise walk right past. In writer's workshop, third graders wrote a persuasive speech about a noteworthy person whom they thought deserves more attention and recognition. Writing can be a powerful tool to change the world. Third graders at PNA are now able to look at what's there in the world and see not what's broken, but what's beautiful. And seeing beauty, celebrating beauty, makes the world a better place.
