Writing Projects

 

Students will write every day in class, but that doesn't always mean they'll be creating something they could publish.  The purpose of the writing projects is to show off what skills the students have learned. Each quarter students will have one to two writing projects, usually one formal (such as an essay or research report) and one informal (like a travel brochure or letter).

 

Unlike book reports, students will complete each step of the writing process in class.  In fact, I'd prefer if they didn't take any of their writing project work home with them to ensure that they have it each day that we work on it in class.  Students will be given a writing folder that stays in the room to keep their projects in. At the end of the year, this folder will function as a sort of portfolio to show off student work.
