It's Monday and we are back to a full day's work! It was great meeting with everyone over the conference days! Today we started our author study of Gail Gibbons to wrap up our non-fiction unit of study. She is a well-known author of non-fiction books who has written over 170 books! Wow! We will study how she structures her writing (main idea/details, compare/contrast, cause & effect, sequence of events, description...) and her amazing text features. She will be a "mentor author" for our non-fiction books that we are writing! Check her work out and ask your child what his or her favorite Gail Gibbons book is throughout our study!
