In Writing today, we added our opening. We learned that one way to write an informational opening is to describe the topic without naming it. Another word for opening is "hook," as we are hooking the reader into reading our text (Insects):
They're creepy. They're crawly. They're everywhere!
For our content curriculum, we discussed the circulatory system.
- The circulatory system is made up of the heart, veins, arteries, and capillaries.
- Blood moves through the circulatory system bringing nutrients and oxygen to all parts of the body.
- It takes approximately 1 minute for the heart to pump blood around the body and back.
- Bonus to students of parents reading the class notes: There are approximately 60,000 miles of arteries, veins, and capiliaries in the human body.
