Over the last few weeks, we have been creating a Best Part of Me project.
It all started with a book Ms Elder read to us that was written by kids, called, The Best Part of Me. Each entry was about someone's body part and how that body part helps them do the things they love and makes them unique.
We did some brainstorming of our own, then eventually chose one body part to write about. Some of us chose our hands, legs, eyes, and even our eyebrows and DNA!
We took our writing through the whole Writing Process including: brainstorming, a rough copy, a teacher conference, editing, and a good copy.
Then, we did a rough copy of our Best Part of Me sketch. Next, we did a good copy of our sketch.
After that, we took a picture of our body part. We learned about the rule of thirds and other tips for taking great photos. We thought about the background that would make the most sense for our pictures.
Last, we got our picture, our sketch, and our writing and we put it on to a big piece of paper for the final poster.
We completed a self-evaluation today. Watch for it, plus Ms Elder's evaluation to be coming home tomorrow.
Here are some examples of our work:
