Writing Procedures and Classifying Plants

Today in Language we read a number of examples of procedural writing and gave them a "mark" based on whether we thought we could follow the directions well or not. From our conversation we built an anchor chart of some characteristics of good procedural writing. We will be building on this chart as we learn more about this skill.

In science we learned about how plants are classified by scientists. We tried to find out this information using the chromebooks, but it turned out to be difficult information to find. Finally, we were able to find a site that was useful in showing us how plants are further broken down into groups. Here is a link to a page with a chart that shows clearly how plants are organized:
