Opinion Writing : Common Core Standard CC.3.W.1a

 I am working with a 3rd Grader on the

 Common Core Writing Standard CC.3.W.1.a

We've been talking about the organizational structure that help us write a well-written opinion.  

Together we wrote down some of her thoughts that answer the topic: Is ballet a healthy activity?
