Welcome back from vaca! This week, we are kicking off a new nonfiction unit of study in both reading and writing. At home, this means that students will be reading nonfiction books and recording those "nonfiction noticings" on their at-home reading logs. At school, we are also reading nonfiction like writers as we begin the research stages of our nonfiction writing project - US Regions alphabet books in the style of Michael Shoulders (who we Skyped with earlier this year!)
Check out this Research Workshop document with a list of great resources! In school, we will be using these resources to close read, paraphrase, and plan our nonfiction alphabet books. Stay tuned for some amazing nonfiction in both reading and writing!
