Students read a nonfiction article about the organization, H2O for Life which partners schools from around the world to educate and encourage clean water use. Students consider their own use of water and how they might help others who need clean water. A step-by-step writing activity helps students improve their response to questions about nonfiction articles (BCRs). The activity is available on the primary and intermediate levels. A companion Emergent Reader activity is also available. All correlate with the IRA/NCTE Standard, “Students employ a wide range of strategies as they write and use different writing process elements appropriately to communicate with different audiences for a variety of purposes.”
