First Grade Students at OFRS choose to write, illustrate and publish books during their free time! We are so proud of them for taking the initiative to express themselves through story telling. All year they have been learning how sentences are constructed and how to write simple stories with characters, setting, a problem, events and a solution. They are really taking off as authors!
