Seven pages for one informative piece. Page 1 is the plan. Page 2 organizes it into three sections with headings and a place for a quotation or definition. Page 3 is the same plan on lines: three main ideas, each with its details, and topic words. Page 4 compares two animals in three columns, then in sentences. Page 5 collects facts, a quotation, examples and topic words. Page 6 is a paragraph frame, and page 7 a page of linking words.
Pair the comparison page with two short texts about animals from different places, such as a desert fox and an arctic fox. Students fill the columns as they read, then write the two sentences. Point out how in contrast changes the direction of an idea.
Pick two animals your child likes and talk about how they are alike and different. Ask which difference surprised them most.
Informative writing about animals in sections, with comparisons and evidence. Students plan a piece, organize it under headings, compare two animals with words like in contrast, gather facts, quotations and topic words, and write a conclusion.
