Dioramas and Published Nonfiction Books

It was wonderful to see so many families this week!  Our publishing share was packed with parents and siblings in the morning and then with other second graders in the afternoon.  It was a great time to take pride in our work and share what we've learned.

We will be sharing our books with our reading buddies today and then with more EVCS friends during January - but dioramas have already been sent home.  The students worked so hard on these amazing additions to their writing projects.  We have been having 1-on-1 conferences following this unit to talk about what we learned, what we liked, what we didn't like, and how we want to grow as writers.  Wow, did we learn a lot!
