The November 2015 issue of Science & Children focuses on writing in science. There are two articles that we will look at in PLCs. One is called MAP IT-THEN WRITE IT which focuses on primary grades. The 3rd-5th grade article called SCIENCE FOR TWO VOICES shows how to use poetry to reinforce students' understanding by comparing two related concepts. These cross-curricular connections allow students the opportunity to strengthen their skills when we embed grade level writing expectations with our content.
