4th Grade Reading and Writing Adventures
Our first unit is on narrative writing. The students are familiarizing themselves with the common terminology used in Writing Workshop. I am pleased with the effort that the students put into their writing.
We are presently in our opinion writing unit. Both the 4th and 5th grades wrote their opinion Re: the overpopulation of white-tailed deer. The 4th grade will write another essay involving a piece of literature, while the 5th grade will write on a topic of their choice.
We have begun our unit on Information Writing. The students will be making Informational booklets on an Endangered Species.
Students were working on Literary Essays . Now that they will be working from home, the main writing project will be a Newsletter article about their experiences in dealing with this pandemic of the Coronavirus.
I have included in student packets:
editing and revising practice sheets. They really could use work on their editing and revising skills!!!!! Please help by reading and helping your child correct errors in their writing. |
