Details: - After class one, students will choose a topic for their persuasive essay. - After class two, students will turn in their body paragraphs in full sentence form to the teacher to receive feedback and correct their work. - After class three, students will turn in their introductory and conclusory paragraphs in full sentence form to the teacher to receive feedback and correct their work. They will have to put all three parts of the essay together in one document for the last class. -After the last class, students will turn in their completed essays for a final teacher review. Students should not feel stressed to complete all the writing in the class. They will be able to complete the writing after and between classes, sending me questions and parts of their writing as needed. I am very responsive to and encourage their messages.
