Writing about Fish
In conjunction with our story "Fun With Fish", students worked on a writing piece this week. We worked on having a topic sentence, three detail sentences and a conclusion that would tie it all together. This was our first attempt at a pretty intricate writing project and I think students did really well. Here are a few samples.

Fun With Fish!
Our Anthology story this week is called "Fun With Fish". We have been working on creating a class mural. The class worked together to watercolor the background and then on their own sketched their fish. Once the fish were sketched, they used chalk to add color and uniqueness to them. Today, they cut those out. Some of the students watercolored green, brown and black paper to help create the sand, rocks and seaweed. It was a great way to integrate art, reading, science and math this week.
