The document discusses journaling and shares examples of journal entries. It begins by welcoming readers back and introducing new ideas to share. The author then asks if anyone wants to share pages from their journal. Several journal entry examples are provided covering topics like basketball practice, a music classmate's singing, and using song lyrics. The document concludes by reminding readers that their journal is just for them and not to worry about perfection.

1. JOURNALING
PART 2
I’m
Back!

2. Ahoy, Buccaneers!
Just checking in to
see how you are
doing. I have
brought some new
“treasures”
to share with you!

3. Here Goes…
• Last visit – shared my pages
• Now – new styles and ideas
• Hope you will share!
• Hooked some friends…and we
occasionally have “Bite and Write”
in each others’ homes.

4. Before we start I would
like to ask if anyone
would like to share any
pages they have done.
Any takers?
Pause for sharing…

5. Now I will share some new
things I have done in my
journal…and then we will
check out some cool ideas I
have found.
Now I will share some of
the new things I have done
in my journal. Then I will
share some cool things I
have discovered!

6. EXAMPLE 1
My life is pretty much
consumed with hoops.
My team’s schedule is
crazy! We have long
practices and games twice
a week. My coach is kinda
nice…
But lookout when he
gets angry!

7. EXAMPLE 2

8. Coach insists we wear
our team uniform all the
time for practice. One
day the temperature
outside was 16 degrees.
The heat in our gym was
broken. I thought I
would get frostbite!
EXAMPLE 3

9. Today we played the
number 1 team. They
were:
• very talented
• a little older
• much bigger
• They didn’t take
us seriously.
• They played
sloppy.
We rallied at the end
and beat them by 12
points!
EXAMPLE 4
You should have seen
coach’s smile!

10. The girl next to
me in music
thinks she sings
like Carrie
Underwood!
She really sounds
like a dog howling!
EXAMPLE 5

11. EXAMPLE 6
My Big Box of
Dreams
Justin Timberlake

12. Always say what you feel…because those who
mind don’t matter…and those who matter don’t
mind!

13. Use
Song
Lyrics

14. …Like a wrecking ball..

15. What’s in your
pocket?
• Left
• Right
• Friend’s pocket
• Girl’s purse
• Backpack

16. Guest Journaling
Ask a friend to write a page in your
journal.
Is there a volunteer who will write a
page in my journal?

19. Remember…
• Your journal is just for you!
• Use it to record notes, ideas, dreams,
memories…whatever!
• Try out new techniques (collage, cut-
outs, stamps, etc)
• Don’t try to make your pages perfect
• Don’t ever compare it to someone else’s
journal
• Don’t make it a chore
