The purpose of this unit is to encourage our children to see writing as a way to teach others .
Some of the goals for the children are:
- They will create a text that will teach others how to do something.
- Students will learn how to elaborate on each "step" by adding tiny action, specific vocabulary and transitional words like first, next, and last.
- Students will use their letter sound knowledge to write words that have beginning, middle and ending sounds.
- Students will continue to improve their use of spacing in order to make their story more readable.
