We wrapped up our Opinion Writing unit on Friday with an AWARDS celebration. The kids each wrote nominations for their favorite book(s), came up with different award categories (Action Packed, Funniest Character, Attention Grabber, etc), and even judged the different nominations. The award winners were announced during a small ceremony in class on Friday.
The books were given small ribbons to place on the covers.
The kids have been encouraged to write a letter to the author of the books they nominated (even if their nomination didn't receive an award), and let the author know how much they enjoyed reading the book. We will mail the letter, along with the book nomination to the author or publishing company. We are all hoping to hear something back.
