Here are some guidelines to help you with your interview.

1. Always ask permission to interview the person. You can do this face to face, by phone, or by letter. Explain what you’re doing and why. Be sure to tell him or her how much time you think you’ll need.

2. Decide ahead of time what you want to know.

3. Make up questions that will help you get the information you need.

4. Write your questions down in an organized order, leaving space between each one for taking notes.

5. Speak clearly, and be polite. Pay attention as the person answers.

6. Take notes on the answers. Jot down only enough to help you remember what the person said. You might find it helpful to use a tape recorder if one is available. Always ask the person’s permission before you record his or her voice.

7. Read over your notes as soon after you leave the interview as possible, while the conversation is still fresh in your mind. Make additional notes to help you clarify ideas where necessary.

Friendly Letter 136 Sunnybrook Circle

Panama Beach, Florida 36890

August 10, 2008

Dear Aunt Claire,

I was cleaning out my bookshelf and

found some books that Lynne might enjoy.

When I was her age, Madeline was my

favorite book character, so I am sending

her all of my Madeline books. I also

thought that, since she’s in first grade, she

might like Frog and Toad Are Friends.

By the end of the year, she’ll be ready to

tackle Two Good Friends. I hope Lynne

enjoys these books as much as I did!

Your niece,

Michele

I also liked it, but my one was “Three

Little Kittens.”

That rhyme is about the kittens who lost

A Fish Out of Water by Joshua Fairborn

Oswald got up to get a closer look and was

surprised to find out that he could actually

walk. His fins were moving just like feet.

He walked across the room to his fish tank.

He looked in. Just then, his boy yawned,

stretched, and woke up.

One morning, on a very gray day, Oswald

woke up feeling kind of strange. He stretched

his fins, yawned, and looked around. Across

the room, he saw his fish tank. His boy was

in it! Sleeping! The boy who always came to

feed him, change his water, and talk to him

was in his tank. Sleeping!

Conferencing during the Writing Process

Transparency 25


Conferencing is a way to find out what is good about your writing and what can be improved.

Why is conferencing important? It helps you think about your writing and gives you ideas to make it better. This is true whether you are the writer or a reader!

When you are the writer, your job is to listen carefully to what your readers say. They can tell you if your writing is confusing or if there are better words you can use. A good reader can help a writer all the way through the writing process.

When you are a reader, your job is to point out things you liked and to point out places that could be improved. Learning to give constructive feedback is an important part of the conferencing process. Constructive feedback is when a reader tells the writer about the problems in the writing by stating examples without being mean or negative.

There are four people in my family. I have

a mother, a father, and an older sister. I am the

youngest one. I was born on January 1, 2000. We

always celebrate the new year and my birthday the

same day!

My mother and father both work. My mother works

in the library, and my father drives a taxi. My sister

is in high school, and she takes care of me after school.

There are many things I like to do. I like to draw

pictures, and I like to read books. Mysteries are my

favorites. Cooking is lots of fun when my sister and I

cook together. I like eating even better than cooking!

I wish we could have a cat. We can’t because

my family lives in an apartment, and pets are not

allowed. On Mondays, my sister and I help out at

the cat shelter. That is almost as good as having your

own cat because these cats need love too. Working at the

shelter makes me want to become a veterinarian when

I grow up.

It started as a beautiful, sunny summer day.

Mom Dad Jess and I went to a baseball game.

We was having a great time until the rain started

coming down in sheets. Immediately everyone runned

for cover. The workers covered the field with plastic

and the players returned to the dugouts Then, the fans

started going to his cars. Wasn’t that a nasty ending

Non-fiction Book ReviewReview of Crinkleroot’s Book of Animal Tracking by Jim Arnosky

Transparency 51


Crinkleroot’s Book of Animal Tracking explains how you can tell where an animal has been by the tracks and other signs that they leave. The book starts with beavers and tells how they make dams. Then, it tells about river otters. It shows what the otter’s tail-print and footprints look like. Raccoons, whitetail deer, snowshoe rabbits, bobcats, and red foxes are also covered in the book. There are special things to learn about each animal. For example, the red fox makes a funny little dog yip.

This book was great! Crinkleroot is a funny character. Even though Crinkleroot is funny, I learned a lot. There are drawings on every page. One thing that surprised me was the picture of the raccoon’s tracks. They look like a person’s hands! At the end of the book, there are even more pictures of animals’ tracks. The book made me want to go hunting for animal tracks right away!

How to Grow Pumpkins

Here is how you can grow your own pumpkins for Halloween. First, dig up the soil to make it soft. Second, make the soil into a hill about three feet high and three feet wide. Next, plant five seeds in different places in the hill. Then, cover the seeds with an inch of dirt. Then, water the seeds. After that, wait ten days for the plants to grow. Keep the two biggest plants and pull the others. Every week, give your pumpkins plant food. Finally, pick your pumpkins after they turn orange.

We thought our ride was about the most exciting

thing we’d ever done. Courtney and I nervously

prepared for our very first plane ride. The engines

were revving as we sat down and fastened our seat

belts. The plane began backing up, and we were soon

zooming down the runway. Up in the air and over the

clouds we flew. Our ears plugged up and it was hard to

hear. All too soon, though, our ride was over.

Nate got to school early on Friday morning. He was excited about Games Day. Nate saw his friend Brad on the playground.

“Are you nervous?” asked Brad.

“A little,” said Nate.

Nate was one of the fastest runners in third grade. Today he might win a blue ribbon. He had a dream about winning a blue ribbon.

It was time for the race. The runners lined up. At the signal, they all started to run.

Nate got a good start, but Tina was ahead of him. He thought about the ribbon. He ran faster and faster. He passed Tina and crossed the finish line. He won!

Later, Nate walked home. He looked at his blue ribbon. He smiled and thought, “I guess dreams do come true, sometimes.”

One nice evening, Dona was watching television.

A short message was on the screen. It said: “Great

auroras tonight.” Dona put on her warm jacket and went

outside. Twin pathways of colorful light went across the

dark sky. As Dona watched the pretty trail, a red border

grew along its bottom edge. Then, the ball of light

seemed to burst, putting rays all over the night sky.

The Quarter by Shelly Combes

Quarters do not look the same as they did a long time ago. The pictures on them have changed. In this report I will tell you how quarters have changed.

The 1800sThe first quarters had an eagle on one side. On the other side, there was a woman called Lady Liberty. Some quarters only had her head on them. Some had her whole body.

The 1900s until 1999In 1932, the quarter was changed. It was George Washington’s 200th birthday. Washington’s head was put on the quarter instead of Lady Liberty. Then, in 1976, it was America’s 200th birthday. A picture of a drummer from 200 years ago was put on instead of the eagle.

1999 and the 2000sQuarters changed again, starting in 1999. Instead of the drummer, the quarters have the names of states on them. Each state has a different picture that shows something special about that state. Quarters have changed a lot since the first quarters in the 1800s.

Last summer my mom and dad let my brother and me choose where to go for vacation. They told us we could go to the ocean or to a lake. We chose the ocean, because we had never been there.

We started our trip in the afternoon. My dad drove all night. I don’t remember that part though, because I was sleeping. When I woke up, we were just getting there. We could see the ocean in front of us. It was so big, it was almost scary.

We played at the beach every day. We jumped over little waves. We wrote our names in the sand, and we built sand cit-ies.

I felt sad when we had to go home. I took some seashells to help me remember our vacation at the ocean.

• We all have places that are fun to visit.

• Write a composition about a place you visited.

• Tell why you like to visit there.

races as a young boy he loved to run. he ran on the track

team in school competed in his first race when he was

fifteen. in 1904 Frederick ran in the summer Olympic

Games in st Louis Missouri. He became too tired to finish

therace and he asked his couch to drive him back to the

stadium. The coaches car broke down on the way back

to the statium. frederick had to walk the rest of the way

and was the first runer to cross the finish line. everyone

thought he one the race but he told them the truth. that

year thomas j Hicks won the Summer Olympic race. when

a local reporter asked a judge about the race results,

the judge said “Todays race was the most confusing

spectacle Ive ever seen. It was so puzzling that I thought I

had won the race.

Evergreen Third Grader Is Grand Champion

by Kirk Wade

Alicia Gonzales, an Evergreen Elementary third grader, is the grand champion rope jumper from Allen County. Alicia jumped for a record two hours and ten minutes at the North Side Mall yesterday. She raised a total of $600 for her community shelter.

Alicia started training a year ago after reading about the great need for food andwarm clothing donations during the winter months at the High Hopes Shelter. She got sponsors through her parents’ work and family and friends.

“I am grateful to everyone who supported me and donated to this important cause,” Alicia said, after catching her breath. “My parents were very helpful, too. They made sure I ate right and built up my time slowly.”

Alicia plans to do this every year, at least until she gets to high school. Then she plans to find another way to help support the shelter.

One spring day, when the sky was blue and the grass was orange, Mother Squirrel sat by her babies under their tree.

Sly Fox came by carrying a bucket of green paint. He was on his way to paint a house when he saw the babies and thought, “My, what a tasty meal they’ll make!”

“Mother Squirrel,” he called. “Will you hold my paint? I need to find my lost paintbrush.”

“Yes,” she answered. She had not noticed him before, because he too was orange. She took the bucket.

Suddenly she heard her babies cry out. As she turned to see why, she spilled green paint on the grass. Now she could see Sly Fox very well!

She chased Sly Fox, spilling more green paint as she ran. Her swishy tail spread the paint around until there was no orange grass for Sly Fox to hide in, and he ran away. Since then, grass has always been green.

Make the State Tree Our Tree

I think we should plant the state tree by

the side of our school. It would be nice to

have a tree there for the birds and squirrels.

We could study the tree as it grows, so we

could learn about trees. Also, we could sit

under the tree to read. By choosing our

state tree, we would be honoring our state.

Let’s make the state tree our school tree so

everyone can enjoy it.

The main characters in Owen Foote, Mighty Scientist are Owen and his best friend, Joseph. They are different from each other in some ways. Owen loves science so much that it is hard for him to see that Joseph doesn’t like science very much.

The boys work together on a science fair project with tadpoles. Joseph is afraid that some of the tadpoles are going to die. So he sneaks the tadpoles some extra food. Owen finds the tadpoles dead, and he almost quits the science fair. Then, he and Joseph decide to show how things can go wrong in an experiment. They even win a prize for their project.

In the end, Owen understands that Joseph likes other things besides science. Owen knows they can still be best friends.

• Think about the characters in a book you like.• Write a composition about them.• Tell why the characters acted as they did.• Tell what happened in the story.

A Chair for My Mother

by Vera Williams

A girl lived with her mom and her grandma

in a house. After the house burned, the girl, her

mom, and grandma moved into an apartment.

They needed a new chair. The little girl’s mother

started saving money for a comfortable chair. Every

day they counted the money. Finally, they saved

enough and bought a big chair with pink flowers.

I liked this book even though it had a sad

part. The girl, her mom, and her grandma were

all happy to have a new chair and to have each

other.

Fred was always reading. He walked around

all day with a book in his hands. One day Fred

left a library book on the kitchen table. When

Fred went back to get the book, it was gone.

Where could the book be? He couldn’t afford to

pay for the missing book. What will he do?

Fred looked all over for the book. Then

he noticed his bookmark on the floor near the

rocking chair. Fred went over to investigate. Yes,

it was his bookmark all right.

Fred yelled for his sister. “Rita, have you

seen my book?”

“Was it the one about planes?”

“Yes. Have you seen it?” Fred said.

“Nope, haven’t seen it,” Rita answered, a

little too quickly.

Finally

This morning

Transparency 000

Joe and I went to look for the map in Mr.

Cheever’s garden. We snuck in through the hole

in his fence. We crept around the house and

through the garden. A screeching owl scared us

and we ran all the way to the back gate but the

gate was locked. We climbed over the gate and

raced all the way home. We both felt silly about

being scared of an owl in a garden.
