  1. Lesson 42 Writing Non-Fiction: Publish Expectations: 1. Listen carefully 2. Work hard 3. Be responsible

  2. Review We add /ing/ to most words, if it ends in an /e/ we drop the /e/ and add /ing/. If the word is short and ends in a vowel consonant we double the consonant. If a word ends in a double /e/ we don't drop the /e/ we just add the /ing/. We practiced taking our pre-writing flee map to a rough draft. For homework we revised and edited our first draft!

  3. Spelling Just like the digraph /ch/ and /sh/, the digraphs /ph/ and /gh/ make just one sound, the /f/ sound. Listen. Can you write the alphabet, or is it too tough for you. Did the dolphin jump high enough? I learned a lot from the author's biography and photo.

  4. Good Writers I have an idea! I can use a graphic organizer to make my story Great! I use my senses to tell my story.

  7. Writing Non-Fiction Watch as I use my rough draft with edits to write my neat final draft. (on document camera) You will publish your first non-fiction piece for your assignment today.

  8. Writing Non-Fiction True stories from our life are great non-fiction stories to share. We used a flee map to help us plan. We can use a Tree map to help us plan a different type of non-fiction story.

  9. Writing Non-Fiction

  10. Writing Non-Fiction I want to learn about and share information on leafcutter ants. I can use the tree map to organize my information into what they have, what they can do, and, and what they need. Let's research together! http://youtu.be/emSHL03NkF8

  11. Writing Non-Fiction An average nest of leafcutter ants contains over 5 million ants. There are 3 types of leafcutter ant: the queen, soldier and worker. There are 5 castes of worker ant: foragers, gardeners, those that chop up leaves, tiny ants that distribute leaf bits to the fungi and those called minimae that tend the fungus. Ants of different types vary in size, from the large-jawed soldier ants to the tiny minimae workers.

  12. Writing Non-Fiction Leafcutter ants secrete a chemical trail so they can always find the nest. The ants are capable of carrying over 50 times their own body weight! The ants will travel several hundred meters in search of the right kind of leaves. This is a long way for something so tiny. Wild ants collect leaves from all layers of the forest, from the floor to the upper canopy.

  13. Writing Non-Fiction Each queen leafcutter ant can lay up to 30,000 eggs each day. If the queen ant dies, all the other ants die too! She lives at the heart of the colony and lays all its eggs. A leafcutter ant's nest can be up to the size of a small car!

  17. Read Aloud: Remember the strategies good readers use while I read aloud to you! Book: The Little Prince By: Antoine De Saint-Exupery Chapter Three
