Our Journey

This year, I am beyond excited about the informational journals the students are creating in the classrooms. Their journals will document their learning throughout our unit. It is rewarding to see the students' use of nonfiction text features, "fancy fonts", thinking codes, and so much more. 

Our mentor text is An Egg is Quiet. This text is beautifully written by Dianna Aston. Nonfiction text features can be found throughout this enchanting literacy nonfiction text. We are using this as our mentor text, including stealing the title! The title could not define our eggs better; they are resting quietly in the warm, cozy incubator, while we are eagerly awaiting to see what has been growing inside.
