Happy Friday:
Today your child has a special homework assignment for writing. We are making a hard cover classroom book this year about penguins! Each child has been working in a small group to learn about a specific type of penguin: Emperor, King, Adele, Little, Gentoo, or Macaroni. Each child has been assigned one topic to write about their penguin. What they write will be published in our classroom book so they need to do their best work. Each child must write a paragraph (3-4 sentence). They may use the graphic organizer they are bringing home to help them or they may use the articles I posted on google classroom (Go to Clever, Click on Google Classroom, Click on Mrs. Patterson’s Second Grade Class, Click on Informational Penguin Writing (it’s the first link at the top)). Please do not use any other outside sources. Students are learning to not plagiarize so their sentences must be in their own words; not copied from the articles. This assignment is due on MONDAY.
After our books are completed they will be available to purchase if you wish. You do not have to but some families have bought them in the past 🙂

Hi Mrs Patterson
