Class Experience

Students will learn all about a platypus!  They will write a simple paragraph using the IEW (Institute for Excellence in Writing).
First, they will read a passage about platypuses and discuss the many interesting facts about them.   Then they will create a keyword outline for each sentence.  Later, they will use the keyword outline to create a collaborative paragraph.  Finally, they will use "dress-ups" such as adjectives and adverbs to jazz up their writing for a closing statement.

Learning Goals

Students will be introduced to keyword outlines and using their keywords to create a collaborative paragraph.

Other Details

Supply List
Printouts will be emailed a day before the class starts.
