This week for writing we wrote a How-To. To inspire and engage our students we decided to go a little crazy daisy on them and open up an ice cream shop. The whole group activity was to write a how-to about making an ice cream sundae! We worked through our whole group and interactive writing time, then surprised them at recess with a little make your own sundae and brought our How-To to life!
We make all of our writing packets, inspired by our California Treasurers curriculum. We definitely thought it could use a little sprucing up in the writing department! Our summer goal is to make our writing packets into a workbook for our students to go along with each unit/chapter. And we hope to offer it to all of our wonderful teachers out there in the future!

It's amazing to see the growth in their writing since we introduced How-To writing back in November. Just had to share one of the How-To's one of our students wrote this week...priceless!
