Originally reviewed on TPTThis was an AMAZING end of year project for my students! They LOVED hearing about the ocean animals, learning to annotate their text and using the graphic organizers, were able to do amazing writing as a result! I used the two different organizers to differentiate instruction (can/have/are versus write six facts). We made an ocean animals journal as our last full day activity! The kids LOVED it and so did I.
