Kicking Off How to Writing

We have finally finished our Narrative Writing Unit. Towards the end my kiddos were so tired of writing personal stories.  Every day I would get "I don't know what to write about!" Well now we are moving on and they are super excited.

To start our "How to..." unit we read a couple of different how to books. To pre-assess students had to write a how to book of their own.

They weren't great but it gave us some where to start. Tomorrow we are going to write a class "How to Book" We will start by making a peanut and butter sandwich as a class. Then we will complete this graphic organizer to help us organize our thoughts so that we can write about how me made the sandwich. 

I can't wait to teach this lesson I know my kiddos are going to love it!!!
