With the new month came a new writing unit, and we’re now working on teaching others about our areas of expertise! Our current writing unit is all about informational writing. Students have chosen a topic to write about, and so far we've planned our table of contents and have begun to write our chapters. We've talked about different text structures in non-fiction books such as boxes and bullets, causes and effects, problems and solutions, pros and cons, and compare-and-contrast. The class has already learned a lot about each others' topics, and there's so much background knowledge that we're benefiting from in 3B this month! |
