Welcome back! Happy Monday!

In all classes, students continued with researching and writing for their informational books. Just a reminder that this project is more of a writing unit than a research unit, so you should be finishing up with note-taking for your book. Now you and your partner should be delving into your writing.

Today we reviewed what was necessary for effective informational chapters: data, evidence, explanation of evidence, and visual charts or link. Many of you have started including hyperlinks. I am impressed by what I see as I confer with students! Keep going...you're looking like researchers!

H/W: You and your partner should have set your homework assignment for tonight. Make sure you are asking someone to read your writing aloud. A student suggested to copy and paste your text into google translate, and then the program will read to you. Great idea. Thank you, Abby!

See you tomorrow! You should be ready to start on your second chapter.
