We are using different formats to organize our writing. Ask your child if they are organizing their book in:
- Boxes and Bullets
- Pros and Cons
- Cause and Effect
- kinds
- parts
- examples
- ways
- a pro and a con section
- a partly the same and partly different section
- a part that is told in sequential order...1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th
- The whole chapter could be written as a story
- There could be a small moment used as evidence to support a point
- There could be a story that begins or ends a chapter
Point out different types of informational books to your child at home. Explain the different ways authors of informational books organize their topics.
