What Fun! Writing About the Beach With Second and Third Graders!
I made a beach-themed writing activity for my summer rock stars camp kids, because I really, really needed an activity that they would not consider "school work". They enjoyed this a lot. Normally, this type of activity would be best suited for the younger kids-the first graders. But I discovered that my incoming third and fourth graders enjoyed hunting the room for these words to fill out their recording sheets.
This is a lot like a write-the-room activity, which is often considered a first grade activity--
But this is more challenging! My kids seemed to get excited about this! And even though it was a hot, humid day inside our little rock stars camp, they really wanted to finish!
I added a few other templates or writing frames to go with this--since kids do love to write about summery things. I've posted this resource (Common Core aligned) to my Teachers Pay Teachers store. Check it out! If you do visit my shop, please know that I appreciate any and all window shoppers!
