Writing Like A Scientist

WRITING
Our writers are engaged in a unit where they are writing lab reports, like scientists.  They are including
     -A Question and Hypothesis
     -The Materials You Need and The Procedure
     -The Results
     -Analyzing the Data, Where they confirm/revise their hypothesis

Some items they have had to experiment with have been...toy monster trucks, hot wheels, ramps, and various tops. 

READING
Our readers have been thinking about putting their books on stage.  We have been working on performing a reader's theatre (K was our first audience).  Students are paying attention to envisioning the characters' actions, gestures and facial expressions.  Students can also pull sections from their books to perform.  Fun to watch, for sure.
