Hi Stephanie! I love your blog! Thank you for sharing your ideas--there are so many that I can use in my room :)
My next unit in writing is persuasive--where did you get the 5 star writing? Was it your modeled piece or was it a former student's piece? I think having that for the students to see helps set expectations :)
The 5* writing piece was a former student's piece however, I think you can definitely use a modeled example too. It was a good idea to set the bar for students to have something to look forward to publishing. Check out my writing sequence to see how else you can structure the unit: http://missaugello.blogspot.com.au/2012/10/writing-unit-sequence.html
