Learning Target · What & Why
I can develop an invented-holiday scene using connected events and details so a reader can follow my ideas.
I Know I Am Successful When…
- I describe a special tradition or activity.
- I explain how it helps people feel connected.
- I use clear sentences and relevant vocabulary to connect the events.
In our town, we created a new holiday called ‘Unity Day’ to celebrate community and togetherness. Every year, we held a grand festival filled with unique traditions and joyful activities. It quickly became a cherished event for everyone.
Your turn: Write 4–6 sentences. (1) Invent one special tradition or activity for Unity Day. (2) Explain how it helps people feel included or connected.
Help: “On Unity Day, everyone ___. This tradition matters because ___.” Use two words from this optional bank: tradition, festival, customs, joy, celebration, unique, activities, community, excitement, theme.
