We started our work in our next unit in Writer's Workshop, Writing About Reading (persuasive writing). In this unit, we will practice forming opinions about books or characters, and then use those books to give evidence for our opinions. Today, we used a book we had read and enjoyed earlier this year Mercy Watson to the Rescue. We talked about what made the book funny, why the character of Mercy was so funny, and then we wrote a classroom letter to try to convince other readers that they would enjoy the book too.
