Cooperative writing was a huge success when Mrs. Weber's 7th graders joined Mrs. Erickson's 3rd graders for writing class. The 3rd graders are writing about adaptations an animal (of their choice) has that allows them to live outdoors all year. After doing their research, the 7th graders assisted with typing and guiding organization of the paragraphs including an introduction, body, and conclusion. The 7th graders learned about adaptations as well. An amazing collaboration for our students!
