Turkey Treats

On Tuesday, students were introduced a new type of writing: "How To" (otherwise known as procedural writing). This is a genre first graders will practice in a future unit of study during Writing Workshop. I projected an example of "how to" writing onto the Smartboard, which gave the directions of how to make a tasty turkey treat using Oreos, frosting, and candy pieces. Students had to read and follow the directions, and then they could eat their yummy treat! A copy of the "recipe" was sent home on Tuesday. Happy Thanksgiving!
