We have launched our last unit of study in writing which focuses on Persuasive Writing of All Kinds. This unit focuses on using words to make change. Students will be crafting petitions, persuasive letters, signs, and books to rally people to address problems in the classroom, the school, and the world. Already, students have been engaging in writing letters to ask for earlier bedtimes (a surprise for me too), posters reminding kids of hallway expectations, books about whole body listening, and many other topics. INQUIRE with your child what kind of writing they've done this week? What problems do they see around them that they are wanting to change?
