Writing ideas

What is your favourite animal?  Draw a picture and label the body parts. Write 1 or 2 sentences

about the animal. Ex: Butterflies eat nectar. They can fly.

 Read or listen to a non-fiction book about your favourite animal. If you do not have a non-fiction book you can find lots on youtube. Just search non-fiction book about the animal you chose. Draw a picture and write one new thing you learned about the animal.

Remember to sound out the words you do not know and put your spaces between the words and use your sight words to help!
