F. Scott Fitzgerald

Reading the web today, I came across a website that had all these exclamation marks on it. The site reminded me of a quote.
Cut out all these exclamation points. An exclamation point is like laughing at your own joke.
F. Scott Fitzgerald


Two years ago I had a class of third-grade girls, and they loved using exclamation points in their writing. Their emails were full of emoticons.

It was cute.

Next year I will have a new opportunity with a new grade level. It won't be the same, but there should be some good stories throughout the year.
