Writing Like Third Graders

Last week we began writing like 3rd graders!  We focused on the topic, "How Can You Make Earth a Better Place".  We did lots of research using Wonderopolis to support our thinking. We came up with three main ways we can make the world a better place: conserve energy, plant a tree and Reduce, Reuse, Recycle.  For each of the ideas students wrote a five finger paragraph.  We discussed how our writing is starting to look like 3rd grader writing because we have multiple ideas in our writing which means we are really writing essays! Check out your child's blog to see their excellent writing! How exciting!
