US Grade 8 - 11
Intermediate Level
In this class, students will type three college freshmen level papers. These include a self-reflection essay, an informative essay, and a research essay. For each essay, students will receive supportive materials and writing prompts to choose from. They will submit a first draft, and then they will receive THOROUGH feedback by their instruction. My feedback is highly effective as I offer writing skills instruction via my in-line comments, right on their document. This allows for immediate improvement in writing skills. Students will type the very same essays I teach my college freshmen.
Learning Goals
Students will learn how to format their essays in MLA guidelines.
Students will improve their formal writing skills.
