Writing

Writing will be a continuous effort in our class. there will be many stages and styles of writing, with feedback and high expectations from the teacher. Good writing often derives from many hours of reading; the absorption of vocabulary, voice, and format is seamless with delving into knowledge from a medley of literature and prose.

Many people have said, "Good writing is rewriting." The beauty of using wikis is that students can continuously modify and improve their efforts in real time. There will be certain assignments that students will edit and revise multiple times, however, this would not be realistic or beneficial esteem wise with every paper turned in. Parents will always have access to their child's writing and artwork, and will also be able to provide constructive and positive feedback. Writing is a collaborative effort and I look forward to seeing many intellectual gains this year.
