We are finishing our "how to" book. Students wrote about a wide variety of subjects and each child's "how to" instructions are original. The kids were very careful to use many of the things that we noticed while studying that genre. Several children noticed that there were ellipsis or colon after the materials title so they put the same in their writing. Most of the class noticed and used numbered instructions.
While typing their final products they have become very aware of the red and green lines used in Microsoft Word to indicate that something is incorrect. Editing up to Microsoft Word standards is a real learning process! We are all very proud of the end products.
