Expository Writing We will not be reading a story. We will be doing the OLSAT test on Monday and Tuesday. On Wednesday we will concentrate on expository writing and our animal reports. We will use the information that the students gathered about an animal from the rain forest, ocean or desert and attempt to write a five paragraph essay.
Animal Posters The posters are due on Monday, April 25th. Thank you for your help at home with this project. The posters will be hanging in the hall for Open House. Please make sure that the poster is only 11" x 14" so we have room to hang them all.
