Thanks everyone for your thoughtful suggestions! Angie,
I agree. I did use this lesson for my second nine weeks non-fiction unit. But, I think I will begin with it this year. My 6th graders really got into it (especially my ESL kids). What would you suggest doing after this? (I will be doing fiction the first nine weeks.) Would you do some more modeling or have them do some independent practice with short stories or picture books?
