When I purchase anchor books I am looking for books that will spark interest and conversation amongst my students. I chose these titles for that reason
So here is the D part- Once we read our anchor books and learn all we could about the planets we were ready to write! Students wrote their "Diary of A ____ Astronaut" ( the blank is for an amazing adjective) Here is a great works in progress:
The Diary is available in our Reading to Learn Inner Planets. Click here to check it out.

I found you via the A to Z challenge and a comment you made on my blog. Your blog is so visually appealing, and I love the way you share both books and writing in this post. I keep some children't books in my room, even though I teach seniors. The kids like to read them when they are between books or have a few minutes spare time.

DeleteVery cool! I wish I'd had writing classes like this when I was a kid. :D
ReplyDeleteI use anchors with my senior students, too, but not often enough - thanks for the reminder! Those astronaut books look great - my son would love them!
