These #WatertownWay LEAP Leopards just wrapped up their opinion writing unit. Their final piece was to write about the best book ever and convince our judge (Mrs. Parys) that it really is the best book ever. It was a TOUGH choice because all students wrote very convincing pieces with strong reasoning.
Our runners up were Asher and Marcel and our first place winner was Teagan. Their final pieces are hanging up proudly in the hallway for all to see.
