4th Gr ELA at Ames & Hollywood

Students are continuing to work hard on their Wildlife Biologist task! Their infographic about bats has been completed, and students can share this with you by logging in to Google Classroom. This week students shifted their focus to writing a magazine article with the goal of persuading Chicagoland residents that the Chicago Park District should approve the installation of bat homes within local parks. The students organized their research notes into a graphic organizer that will provide structure to their articles, and they wrote their introductions. Next week we will revise, edit, and work towards polishing up the formatting of the articles. 

Be sure to ask your child



  • what part of their research they plan to use to dispel a common myth about bats.
  • what the best way to organize your arguments is within a persuasive writing piece.
