We discussed the elements of the story and brought it to life by creating a story board for the hallway.



Our finished The Three Snow Bears storyboard!
Some students compared and contrasted The Three Snow Bears and Goldilocks and the Three Bears.
The students were so interested in learning about the Arctic and Antarctic regions that we decided to continue our study. We learned about Arctic foxes, narwhals, beluga whales, Eskimos, penguins, and polar bears.

They used these notecards to compose their rough drafts using these questions prompts to guide their writing:
1. Where does it live?
2. What does it look like?
3. What does it eat?
4. What predators does it have?
5. How many kinds (species) are there?
6. What are some facts about it's babies?
7. What are some fun facts?

After writing their rough drafts, Mrs. Boltz helped make revisions. A second rough draft was written and edited for errors. Then, final draft writing began! To prepare their non-fiction writing for display, students found photos of their animals and printed them.
