RAFT

Role:  The identity you take on as the writer (ex: Santa Claus)
Audience:  Who you are writing to (ex: Buddy the Elf)
Format:  What form your writing will take (ex: a Letter)
Topic:  What you are writing about (ex: How to find his Dad)

Today's RAFT needed to include the 4 layers of the Earth in its Topic.  The writing assignment needed to include the states of matter of the layers (solid, liquid, gas), temperature, pressure, density and if you like you can also include what each layer is made of.
