1 Question

Directions: Throughout Unit 2, you have been reading texts about the challenges faced by children accessing books in other places in the world and how those challenges are overcome. On the Mid-Unit 2 Assessment, you read a text about children in Mongolia. Reread pages 20 and 21 of My Librarian Is a Camel. Then, write a paragraph to answer the following question: What challenges do children in Mongolia face when accessing books, and how are these challenges overcome?

A well-written paragraph:
■	 Introduces the topic by describing the geography of Mongolia 
■	 Has a clear topic sentence 
■	 Describes the challenges faced when accessing books and how those challenges are overcome 
■	 Uses facts, and details from My Librarian Is a Camel: pages 20 and 21 
■	 Follows rules of writing (spelling, punctuation, and grammar)

Now, begin work on your paragraph. Manage your time carefully so that you can:
1. Reread pages 20 and 21 of My Librarian Is a Camel. 
2. Plan the paragraph using the Close Read: My Librarian Is a Camel: Mongolia note-catcher. 
3. Write the paragraph. 
4. Check the Informational Texts anchor chart to be sure your piece meets all the criteria.
