Third Grade Writing Informational Essay with Student Work
For the informational essay unit, I created a graphic organizer for the students to organize their thoughts. Then I modeled through an example to show expectations. From the example of the graphic organizer, I color coated the graphic organizer so the students could see the thoughts transfer from the graphic organizer to their rough draft. I labeled my rough draft and highlighted some changes. Lastly, I provided an example for the students to display expectations for the final draft of the informational essay. I have also created a similar format for the current biographical unit. I created an organizer for each paragraph and an example with annotated explanations. I have also created a similar unit outline a biography unit.
