3.  Speaking Topic - for next week - Non Fiction - Animal Research Cards

PAC PIE SALE - newsletter and information; delivery March 17th

NON FICTION SPEAKING TOPIC
Next week student present mammals as part of our class's non-fiction unit.  Students have selected a mammal card.  Each student has been given a criteria sheet to help support their success with this task.  Student have worked through a model in class.  One key area is to paraphrase the facts for their mammal, in their own words. 

This is a difficult skill.  It has been suggested that students  read their fact card 2 times and then  put the card away.  Their great memories will enable them to select 3 facts about their animal. 

Students are not required to do any additional research or add information that cannot be supported by their card. 

Thank you for your support.  :-)
