In this 5-day paragraph writing class, 2nd and 3rd-graders will master writing one opinion paragraph each lesson through writing prompts & paragraph structure instruction with an easy-to-follow template in a supportive & fun environment. Students have the opportunity to send their writing to the teacher after class for personalized feedback. 

📝A PDF printable will be sent to be printed out and brought to class. If the PDF is forgotten or you are unable to print it, your student may still attend and participate in the class with pencil and paper. The PDF printable is intended to give students further support and decrease overwhelm. The PDF printable is highly suggested. 

📝Each class will begin with a short warm-up to get students engaged with the teacher and the lesson material. Each lesson will be focused on writing one opinion paragraph by the end of class. Students will be given an engaging paragraph structure lecture, then will be led through a series of steps and prompts to help support them through the proper paragraph writing process. The curriculum will be taught through group engaging activities!

📝Upcoming schedule:

Day 1: What is the best type of candy?
Day 2: What is the best season?
Day 3: What is the best video game?
Day 4: What is the best book?
Day 5: What is the best school subject?

See you in the classroom soon!

Teacher Bethanie
