At Lowell Elementary School, students are encouraged to chew bubblegum at school – but only during writing time. In the MSD of Warren Township, all schools provide forty-five minutes of daily writing time in each classroom. This time is called Writer’s Workshop. Part of Writer’s Workshop involves students thinking and writing independently. During that time, students at Lowell are allowed to chew bubblegum. Hannah Parker in Mrs. Stierwalt’s class enjoyed chewing bubblegum and writing a personal narrative about a special Christmas moment.
