I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again: nothing brings us more pride and joy when a teacher tells us how a class has taken six words and run with them. Jane Ware teaches second grade in San Ramon, CA and writes: “My second grade class has been writing their 6-Word Memoirs each week and from the six word sentences they started with, their new submissions are becoming more sophisticated. Any chance we could get them on the website? What an incredible opportunity for them.”

To Jane we say: Yes, we can. Here’s what the kids in San Ramon came up with.

I’m okay with my word memories.
