Unit 1 Week 5 The Perfect Pet ...Research

This week we read The Perfect Pet.  I asked the students to think of their perfect pet.  They could not choose a common pet.  It had to be a unique choice.  They were asked to bring a picture in and they were allowed to do research in the classroom on their pet. Students had to read the material and highlight important/interesting facts about their pet to write in their POETRY JOURNAL.  Here are some examples of their work.  :)
