Class Experience

US Grade 2 - 5
This is a one on one where the students will learn a step by step method for writing a great paragraph. I will use a hamburger and it's different parts as a model for their paragraph. The students will review sentences first and then throughout the lesson they will learn what the topic sentence is, the conclusion and all the details in between. They will be writing about something they love, therefore it will be fun for them to get their ideas on paper. I use an "I do, We do, You do" process. I will be sharing a PowerPoint that has the illustrations as well as what I have written on there. This is a fun, quick way to learn and practice writing a good paragraph.  Being one on one, this gives me the freedom to really target the needs of your student. I will offer ideas to improve their writing and help them follow the model to the best of their ability.  As the class continues, a prompt will be given and the writing strategy will be practices. With fun prompts and a systematic approach to writing. 
The class will follow this schedule:
5 minutes - meet and greet
