Throughout the week, we also gathered text based evidence from lots of other books about why fruits and vegetables are good for us to eat. Here are a few other books from the same pack I mentioned above (with a little bit of "evidence" that students gathered stuck to the front).
Food was the weekly theme for our March is Reading Month theme, which focuses on informational text. We're traveling on the Information Highway...with a different theme each week. You can find the resources that we're using for this month long unit in my Information Highway unit.
Here are some of the nonfiction books I gathered for us to use during our food week.
We collected text based evidence about why fruits and veggies are good for us during our close reading and in small groups with different books from our collection. We added the evidence to an anchor chart throughout the week. I included the resource and the page number in a different color under each "fact".
In between all these snowy/icy/whenarewereallygonnahavea5dayweek days, we finally had time to do an art project! Ta da!
(front view + writing on the back)
The parts and pieces (minus the bag) can be found in the product below if you're interested. The writing page + the resources sheet to put on the back of the bag are also included.
My students were also super excited to practice their how to writing skills by writing about how to make a food of their choice. I'm so proud of the progress they have made in writing! We've been revisiting how to writing throughout the year. I really wanted them to use first, then, next and last in their how to writing. In the past, I've had to guide them through the process, but this time they were able to go through the process independently...which makes my heart sing! (The pages for our graphic organizers and the writing are included in my Information Highway unit.)
Here is a student sample...
This weeks theme is music. Makes me feel like dancin' reading!
