Gf Stories Without Endings Snapshots Se 1996c

I am an alternative education teacher from Chicago. Most of my students are at least two grade levels behind in reading and writing by the time they get to my class. I used this book last year for the first time and had great results. The students in the past have had a hard time in starting thier essays and this book took that trama out of their writing. The students enjoyed the stories and would try to out due the other students in their endings. Even though the stories would often take on an urban flair and enter the realm of surreal, the fact of the matter was my kids were writing. That in itself could be considered a minor miricle. I would definiatly reccomend this and was close to giving it five stars, but these types of books are only as good as the teacher who uses them. May it be a five star book for you (teacher or parent encouraging your student to write).
