The first blog posts are up! You can see them at the RES Second Grade Animal blog.
Second
graders at RES are working on a nonfiction writing and blogging
unit. This is a collaborative unit taught by the second grade teachers
and Beth Redford, our library media specialist.
First, second graders chose interesting animals, researched them in the PebbleGo online database, and wrote down facts to use in their blog posts.
Second, the scholars used their notes to create informational writing pieces about their animals.
Finally, the second graders used the Blogger iPad app to create posts for the RES Second Grade Animal blog. They typed in the great texts they had written, and then added photographs of their illustrations. Seven posts are already up on the blog, and more posts will be coming in the next few weeks. We are very proud of all our second grade scholars!
