Description
Class Experience
Students will learn to outline and write paraphrases, summaries, creative story telling, writing from research, responding to essay prompts, and writing formal story critiques.
Each week students will complete an outline based on a source text and will then write a target number of paragraphs from that outline. At the start of the course, homework is generally writing one paragraph. As the course progresses, the homework increases. Students will also be expected to study vocabulary as part of their weekly work.
