***Practice Ideas at Home :
1. Compare and contrast as much as you can at home. Really have the students stating how things are different and how they are alike with details to support their claims.
2. Practice building paragraphs : http://www.learninggamesforkids.com/graphic_organizers/writing/paragraph-burger.html
