This week, our writers are beginning to work on self selected projects. We took a few minutes to watch,listen, and think about this video explaining the importance of writing. Learning to write well will impact our lives, and we have to resist the urge to undervalue the relevance and benefits of good writing skills.
The students are working on the first drafts of their self-selected pieces. They worked with us to establish the grading criteria for their projects, including the goals they would like to accomplish.
