My students just finished their non-fiction writing unit. Their task was to complete an "expert book" where they teach someone about something they're an expert on. They had to include a table of contents, glossary, fun facts, pictures, etc. Today we had our publishing party where students walked around, read each other's books, and wrote compliments to each other :)
The books turned out amazing! However, amidst all these lovely books and the stacks of books about Pokemon and cats, there were some hidden gems ;)
Here's some expert advice from my lovely 2nd graders. Take notes.
Did you know that when you get to know worms they could be "really nice?" I need to start hangin' out with more worms!
Cheerleaders save friendships!
Caution: do not feed fish to cat, or it will die!
It wouldn't be a writing unit with out my one student writing about vacuums and "hepa filters." Seriously, this child knows more about vacuums than I do!! (He recommends the Shark Rotator Lift Away... "It's apparently the best vacuum out there today"
.... I think?
This student wrote his book all about cards (Pokemon, playing cards, etc.). Here he warns us to keep cards away from fire!
