Class Experience
During our writing tutoring sessions, we will work starting at the writing stage the student is currently at: -PreWriting (Understanding the Prompt, Brainstorming, Research, Thesis Statement, Outlining, Assignment/Rubric) -Drafting (Initial Drafting, 2nd Drafting Addressing issues in Revising/Proofreading/Editing, 3rd Drafting Addressing issues in Revising/Proofreading/Editing) -Revising/Proofreading/Editing (Grammar & Mechanics, Organization, Proper citation of sources, Cohesion, Clear & Concise, Conforms to Assignment/Rubric) -Final Draft (Final Proofreading and Assignment/Rubric Check) Writing is a process. During every session, students will learn how to methodically work through the stages with the intention of taking control of the process. They will learn through guided instruction and feedback so they can eventually be confident and strong in their abilities. Students will share the assignment and rubric with me before the session. They will also share the document with me through Google Docs. This will allow us to both interact with the writing assignment at the same time.
Learning Goals
Students will improve their understand and execution of writing assignments.Other Details
Supply List
If I find that learners need graphic organizer supports to assist with the writing process, I will send them. Students need to bring/share their writing assignment, what they have already completed, and anything they are using to complete it.
External Resources
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
Sources
We will refer to style manuals required by their classroom teachers. We will closely follow assignment prompts and rubrics to work on writing assignments. I will share any writing organization/planning tools that may be needed throughout the writing process.
