Students are learning how to take notes and research. In Writer's Workshop we are working on taking our notes and turning them into a thoughtful piece of writing. We are working on informational writing and teaching others about the various animal groups. We are doing some together and then the responsibility is being released. Students are being encouraged to add "extras" to their writing which makes it more interesting to look at and read. Students are also expected to add text features in their writing such as bold words, labels and captions.
