Hi Ladies! I hope you all remember what your jobs are for our author study. Make sure that I have your attributes chart by this weekend so I can compile all of our thoughts into one chart by next week. I will also be designing a cover for our book so if you have ideas email or post them to me. I want to include all your ideas so let me know what you are thinking! Everything that we assigned today should be done by the end of next week so that we can start organizing our book. When you finish something email it to me (jbeltz@gmail.com) so that I can look it over and organize it with the rest of our author study stuff. Have a fabulous week despite the horrible weather!

Emily- biography of Kate DiCamillo, List of 5+ lesson plans on the internet related to one or more books
Jessi- Writing craft lesson using one book, an alphabetized and annotated list of all the books
Molly- Word sort lesson from WTW, lesson from 50 literacy strategies

Get to work!

Hey Ladies! I hope your last day in class before spring break went well! I wish you all good luck on reading the books over break! Make sure you are filling out your attributes chart. I found some interesting info to add to our charts. I'll remember to send you my copy so you can see what I've got so far! Gave a good break...stay safe! :)

Hi Ladies! Here is the list of books we are going to use for our project. As of right now we are using all of her books only because there are only 11 and we might as well do them all instead of cut 1 or 2 out. But these are the titles. Try and get them or read them. I will have most of them from a public library for us to read, but it will be easier if there are multiple copies. I need to know email addresses because I cannot post an attribute chart here so I will email it to you later. So these are our books:

Because of Winn Dixie
The Tale of Despereaux
The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane
Great Joy
Louise, The Adventures of a Chicken
Tiger Rising
Mercy Watson: fights crime, thinks like a pig, princess in disguise, goes for a ride, to the rescue

Those are all of our books so try and get your hands on them soon. We should have them all read when we get back from spring break!!
