    • Miss Hesse's European Adventure

Students become authors as they wrote their own anthropomorphic novels which were published by Lulu Publishing. This is the real deal!  How many of us can say we've had a novel published? After this project, 4th-6th grade Weiner G.T. kids were able to do just that!

​Take a look at the quality of the books they publish.

Images from our NOVEL AWARDS CELEBRATION!



Students in grades 4th through 6th, will work through their own interactive, digital notebook, "NOVEL PROJECT."  This will better prepare them to write their own anthropomorphic novel!  The notebooks are very similar, however the 4th grade novel project notebook is somewhat easier to read and not as detailed.  The notebooks were adapted from NaNoWriMo. GREAT SITE!!!!!!
