A small dose of non-fiction writing

Don't wait until the "expository writing unit" to get your kids writing non-fiction! 
 And maybe....don't' even start with reports.  Try out smaller doses of non-fiction writing.
 
Check out this 2 minute video by one of our favs and get expository writing into your classroom now. 
 
The Q & A format is perfect for the beginning of the year since you haven't taught introductions and conclusions yet. It is also a great way to bring writing into science and social studies.
 
 
 

P.S.  We have the Animals Black and White book plus another one called Animals Camouflage that is written in the same format!
