Nonfiction Author's Celebration

 We had a lot to celebrate for our Nonfiction Author's Celebration!  We worked very hard during this unit.

We learned a great deal about Nonfiction Text features like photographs, close-ups, table of contents, captions, headings, and glossaries.  Students tried to include some of these features in their nonfiction writing.

 Students enjoyed sharing their writing throughout the unit in our special author's chair.  During the final culmination, students gathered around in small groups while eating their snack and shared.  It was a great way to end the unit together.  Students were able to see close up how other authors wrote.

 Students taught others through their writing.  We learned about topics like... orcas, chess, friendship, indoor soccer, basketball, hair styles, Paper,io, and Hannukah.  It was an informative unit that we enjoyed.
