[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here is a Lucy Calkins “Kindergarten Sampler” that goes into great detail about writing a personal narrative and other written stories. Not sure why the other PPs are so incredulous and skeptical. There is a ton of documentation about this. It’s definitely a common project.

Has nothing to do with decision making surrounding red-shirting. Start your own thread instead of hijacking this one. There is already a Lucy Calkins one. [/quote]

It is hard evidence that the anti-redshirters who are screaming about how the PP must have made up the story about the personal narrative in kindergarten are, per usual, ill-informed. [/quote]

You are ill-informed. I am a para-teacher for grades k-2 and never have my kindergartners been asked to write a personal narrative. 
You’re issue is with schools that use the LC curicullum which is not the vast majority of kindergarten schools across the country. [/quote]
Per the NY Times, a quarter of the country's elementary schools were using LC.  That's a significant portion of schools and, as linked previously, the K curriculum includes writing narratives.

No thank you for sending an article with a paywall. 
Besides that, how does that support using LC as a measure of going to kinder or not. It doesn’t. Keep eating yourself alive dying on that LC hill. [/quote]
