WOW! I am so impressed with the hard work students have been showing as they work to finish their nonfiction animal reports. The children have learned how to open a paragraph with a focus statement and then write a detailed description of a particular topic. Students have been writing clear and concise complete sentences. Today we spent time learning about how to write an introduction to the entire report. The children were enthralled and ecstatic over finding a way to 'hook' their readers. Tomorrow, we'll work on writing a conclusion to these reports. INQUIRE with your child about what they included in their introduction to get their reader excited about reading their report.
