Where Would You Live?

We have been learning about differences between the city, the country, and the suburbs. The First Graders worked in groups to create posters to "advertise" one of the types of communities. Their job was to persuade others to want to live there. 

We were able to use what we learned in writing class about opinions and persuasive writing in order to present this social studies learning. We also talked lots about what went well for groups working together and how to handle problems that might arise when working with a group.
