📖 Slide into Summer with Some Sweet Informational Writing

This end-of-year activity is an excellent way for students to show off their informational writing skills. Students will write an informational piece explaining how to make an ice cream sundae using pictures and words. They will then color and craft their sundae to display their hard work.

Tips for Differentiation + Scaffolding 

A team of dedicated, experienced educators created this resource to support your end-of-the-year lessons. 

In addition to individual student work time, use this memory book to enhance learning through guided writing groups, whole class lessons, or remote learning assignments. 

If you have a mixture of above and below-level learners, check out these suggestions for keeping students on track with the concepts: 

🆘 Support Struggling Students

Help students who need help understanding the concepts by completing activities in small groups or a one to one session.

➕ Challenge Fast Finishers

For fast finishers, encourage students to write other “how-to” writings teaching others a process that they know how to complete.
