Today we read a story by Eric Carle, called “A House for Hermit Crab.” It is a story about a little hermit crab that makes a new home for himself. As he makes his way through the water his house becomes more interesting as different animals start to make a home for themselves on his shell.
After reading the story we talked about how hermit’s house became more interesting to others because of the details that were added. We then related or “connected” this to our writing. To make our writing more interesting for the reader we need to add more details.
The students were very excited to get busy with their writing and added much more detail. You are welcome to read your child's Journal during Noisy Reading time!
