Strong Samples of Information Report Writing

Hi everyone!  Yesterday we had a look at some strong samples of information reports.  These strong samples had great detail, the writer had used their own words and used some of their own knowledge when writing these reports.  See below to find out what we are striving for in our writing.  I will be sending home all the information reports that students have written so far so you can have a look.  We will still be working on this form of writing for about another week.  Remind you child to add detail and put things in their own words.

I was looking around the classroom this morning watching as everyone was reading with a friend.  I found the most exciting thing!  A Grade 1 student reading his very first chapter book on his own with confidence, understanding and enjoyment!!!  What a wonderful thing to see!  I am so proud of all my students and all of their achievements this year!  Keep learning everyone.
