Next week starts the new Composition class. Here is a copy of my Day One plans. I want the kids to experience many forms of writing: youth group newsletters, lab reports, English essays, Etsy shop descriptions. Here is 5 Paragraph Essay. Our first task is to edit the slideshow. Numbers ten or fewer are written. 5 should be five. However, the contents of the slideshow outline a bare-bones essay. The first writing assignment is to describe their family’s birthday celebration. I have links listed for more ideas. My goal is to introduce Claim-Evidence-Reasoning to use when writing lab reports. Here is an older blog post about discrepant events in science, using a Poly Density Kit. Here’s hoping we have a blast!
