This week we will work on one of my most favorite writings. It is a special writing and photo project. You will be thinking about how awesome you are and deciding what you believe to be the best part of you. You will write a paragraph (or more) telling what your best part is and explaining why you think it is the best. Follow the steps each day in order to complete your writing. I can't wait to see what you choose!

We will begin this writing project by listen to the read aloud below to get some ideas of what you can write about.

Use your ideas from your think time yesterday to complete your plan today. I have put a couple different planning sheets below to help you guide your thinking. You can print ONE off and use it or just create a plan on your own piece of paper like we would do it class.

Use your planning sheet from yesterday to write your paper today. You will need to write atleast one paragraph explaining why the part you chose is the best part of you. Make sure to include:

- Topic sentence(s) introducing how amazing you are and your best part.

- Tell atleast 2 reasons why that part is your best. Give specific details and examples.
---(Don't say "My hair is best because it is pretty' but instead say "One reason my hair is great is because I can put it up in many different styles." And then you should give examples of those styles.

-Closing sentence(s) to end your writing. Remember to restate your topic, but not the same exact sentence.

Reread your writing from yesterday and make sure it all makes sense. You should edit and revise today. Look at the anchor chart to help guide you while you fix up your writing.

Today will be your final copy of your writing. Make sure to write in you neatest handwriting if you are going to write it on paper. You may type your writing as well. I added some writing paper if you want to print and write on it or you can write on your own paper or type is on the computer.

When you are done creating your final copy of your writing, have your parents take a picture of that part to include in your post. For your post you should have your typed writing or written writing and a picture. Make sure to check the rubric to make sure you have all of the important parts. Include your name on your post as well.

I am a very special and unique person, but the best part of me is my muscles. I like the muscles because I can lift heavy things to help my family around the house. My strong muscles also help me shoot the basketball and be a great player on my team. They also help me hit the ball hard in baseball and score home runs. If I didn't have my muscles I wouldn't be strong and I wouldn't enjoy my sports as much. My muscles are the best part of me.

After listening to the story, think about all of your best parts! Make a list of all the things you like about you. Then, choose one part that you will write about. After you decide on a part, list 3-4 different reasons why you like the part and what it helps you do. Try to be specific. Save your think time paper for tomorrow.

The best part of me. By James

My feet. I like my feet because I can walk,run,swim,jump with my feet. My feet are my best part because if I did not have feet, I would have to crawl around all the time! I would never change my feet because I like my feet and would not have anything to walk on. I would fall and stumble everywhere. This is why I am thankful for my feet.

The best part of me is my brain because it helps me make new designs with my magnetic tiles and Legos. It also helps me choose the book I want to read and understand it.

With my brain I find new ways to play with my toys and make new designs. For example, I make houses out of magnetic tiles and Legos. Also my brain enables me to build stuff in Minecraft.

I love my brain because it helps me choose books I want to read and read them. I enjoy reading it makes me happy.

That is why my brain is my favorite body part. Without my brain I would not be able to do any of those things.
