There is some “ribbit-ing” research happening in Mr. Elbert’s English class at Pacific Intermediate as students explore the life cycle of a frog while developing their informative writing skills. 🐸

Writing a strong essay is a process, and students are building the foundation step by step:
✅ Jotting down key facts from their research
✅ Transforming notes into organized outlines that help structure their ideas
✅ Practicing handwriting and letter sounds to make sure their message is clear

It is great to see our students strengthening their writing skills while learning about the natural world!
