Writing Club: Write Fun Informative, Narrative and Opinion Stories 2nd-4th Grade

This class is taught in English.

Students will work on narrative writing, how-to writing, informative writing and opinion writing with fun and exciting, seasonal/holiday themed writing prompts that are fresh and new each month!

I am a certified elementary teacher and have taught phonics, reading, writing and math for many years. In my 2nd grade classroom I taught Writer's Workshop each day and met with students in small groups and individually after delivering the whole group lesson. Before teaching 2nd grade, I tutored students in reading comprehension, decoding words, math and science after school and during the summer. I was also a Title 1 reading intervention specialist for grades kindergarten-3rd grade focusing on reading fluency and comprehension strategies. I have worked in a preschool and pre-k setting as well working on a variety of literacy skills. 

If your child does not finish their writing in class or would like to add more details afterward, they are welcome to do that. Your child can share their writing with me through the messaging system on Outschool, and I would love to read it and give feedback! We will be working on a draft in class, not always the final copy. Students can create the final copy after class and turn it in through the messenger system for feedback. 

35 minutes per week in class, and no time outside of class.

When completing research for informative writing, we will use kid friendly articles that abide by the Outschool guidelines.
