The Hungry Writer’s Club, which meets during students’ entire lunch and recess period four times a month, has encouraged children to write, helping them develop writing strategies and skills. It allows students to express their thoughts and ideas while learning a variety of different writing techniques. Students have the opportunity to publish and share their completed stories. Second-graders and kindergartners also have the chance to work together as writing partners. The club ends with a Publishing Party to celebrate the completed writing pieces. The club also serves as a way for other teachers to come in and observe the format of a writer's workshop.
