Essay writing

Over the next few weeks we will be working on well-developed paragraph writing and the 5 paragraph essay. While these are skills that our students hopefully begin the year with, we use this time to ensure that we all have the same definition of what makes a solid essay at the high school level.

I have almost finished the summer reading essays and they will begin appearing in Progress Book this week and weekend. Please let me know if you have any questions!

Here are some documents that we are using for this unit:
