Becoming Digital Authors

We've been diving deep into the fascinating world of animals during our informational writing unit! Each student has become a super researcher, choosing an animal classification like mammals, reptiles, or birds. Then, they embarked on exciting explorations to learn all about three different animals within their chosen group. We used folders to create research notebooks so they could use notecards to store their research. That helped students stay organized with the research, so when they transferred it to the writing it was structured! It's been wonderful seeing their curiosity bloom as they uncover incredible facts and details about these creatures.

But the learning doesn't stop at just writing. We're also becoming digital book creators using Book Creator. This fantastic tool allows the students to bring their research essays to life with colorful pictures, interesting layouts, and even their own drawings. It's been such a joy to watch their creativity shine as they design their very own informational books. Get ready to be amazed by the wonderful work our third graders are producing – they are becoming true experts and authors! Below are some sneak peeks of these digital books via Book Creator!
