Our finished applesauce!<\/p><\/div>\n

This past week we have been reading a lot of non-fiction books, specifically How To books.\u00a0 On Friday, we read a How To Make Applesauce book.\u00a0 Today, during Writer’s Workshop, we revisited that book and rewrote the steps ourselves.\u00a0 After we had the procedure crystal clear we made our own applesauce.\u00a0 Each student had a bag to dump into the crockpot to help make the fun treat.\u00a0 After a few hours of cooking, we ate our applesauce for snack!<\/p>\n

CJ and BreAnna added apples to our crockpot.<\/p><\/div>\n

Our class really enjoyed their treat!<\/p><\/div>\n

While our main focus in Writer’s Workshop was How To Books, I also noticed some impressive work during the kid’s independent time.\u00a0 During our non-fiction unit our class has been talking a lot about using resources to help you write.\u00a0 I asked many times, “How are you supposed to write about penguins if you do not know that much about them?\u00a0 Use resources!”\u00a0 I was so proud today when I walked around the class and saw nearly half of the class doing just that!\u00a0 They were looking through books to get facts and help with illustrations. The kids are becoming such great writers!<\/p>\n
