Writing to Persuade! Good evening, y'all! I'm just popping in today to show you how our first day of Author's Purpose went. Since this will be something we discuss from here on out, I am just briefly introducing each topic. Here's a little anchor chart that I made (after about 4 tries... literally). We talked A LOT about the meaning of the word persuade, but the discussion definitely took flight after I gave the example of persistently trying to persuade our parents to buy us new toys. Then, they were ALL over it! We wrote small persuasive letters to our parents. "I will take the trash out without you telling me to." "Love and a million kisses from your faithful daughter" We will continue tackling Author's Purpose throughout the rest of the week! Goodnight!

Being able to communicate effectively with others is key for learning to take place.

Use Easy Nonfiction to Build Background Knowledge By: Elaine K. McEwan (2007) A Texas librarian shares his strategy of using nonfiction picture books to introduce new concepts to struggling adolescent readers and to build their background knowledge. Once students have been exposed to academic content in easy reading material, they are more confident in making the transition to textbooks. For struggling readers, the suggestion to read an easy book, as a way to gather background information, is not filled with fear of failure or dread that the reading will take a very long time and great effort as might be the case if the assignment were to read a more difficult book. — Pressley et al. (2005, p. 45) Help all students — struggling readers and gifted students — to let go of the idea that reading easy books is embarrassing. Promoting nonfiction picture books to struggling high school readers may seem like a daunting task, but John has been creative in his approach.

The Talking Eggs Lesson Plan & Teacher Guide Explore the Story Create four-door books by folding a sheet of paper in half “hamburger” (width) style. Open the paper and fold each side to the center to make two flaps. Cut each one in thirds to make six flaps. On the top two flaps, students should write, “Who Am I?” Students now label the middle two flaps, “What Happened Before I Got the Eggs?” Finally, the students write, “What Happened After I Got the Eggs?” Follow up by asking students to write a letter to each of the sisters, explaining how they feel about each girl’s actions.
