Apples, Apples, Apples!

Informational Text

Last week, the students learned about the different features of Informational Text. They learned that informational text teaches us facts about a topic. After we talked about the different features, the students helped to create an Informational Text Features anchor chart.

 The students read An Apple a Day by Melvin Berger. Before reading the book, the students created a KWL chart to name what they know about apples, want to learn, and what they learned from the book.

My Five Senses

The students learned about the five senses, and helped to create a My Five Senses Anchor Chart. As an extension to the lesson, the students cut things out of newspaper you use each sense for.
