Writing
In the interview we watched for our Independent Menu and during today’s Virtual Visit, Alan Gratz discussed the first-ever book he wrote in the 5th grade. He titled it, Real Kids Don’t Eat Spinach, which was a guide for what all kids should be doing such as what movies to watch, what music to listen to, what foods to eat, etc.
Create your own version of this concept by thinking about what your advice for “real kids” then filling in the last five slides of the Google Slideshow, "A Guide for Real Kids" that has been shared with you in your online writing folder. This assignment is due Tues., 5/21.
