4th - 6th Writing, April 24

(This is a quick post for now; I will edit with more detail later.)

Lesson:
We went over more detail about the structure and format for a standard five-paragraph essay. The students have several pages of notes for this.


Assignment:
Students are to write a five-paragraph expository essay. This can be an expansion of their earlier essays on friendship or on some other abstract concept. It can also be a more tangible topic of their choice. The format is the main thing in this lesson.

If this assignment is too great a stretch for some students, please contact me for an alternate assignment.
