7th - 8th Writing, November 7

Lesson:

We spent part of the class period reviewing the structure of our recent compare/contrast essay assignment, especially the set-up in the intro paragraph. We also read over and discussed some student essays.

The students are doing solid work, showing excellent progress. I am pleased with the breakthroughs I have seen recently.

Assignment:
Students are to write another five-paragraph compare or contrast essay on topics of their choosing. Those who wrote a contrast last time will write a comparison this time.
