This three-week workshop will focus on introducing students on how to write five-paragraph persuasive essays. Students will learn how to successfully follow the steps of writing an essay: prewriting, drafting, editing/revising, and polishing. Additionally, students will learn how to write interesting introductions, concise thesis statements, detail-oriented body paragraphs, effective topic sentences, strong counter-arguments, and powerful conclusions. They will also learn how to use productive transitions, precise word choice, varied sentence structure, and accurate conventions. 

Class #1: Prewriting and Drafting
   •	Parts of an Essay
   •	Thesis Statements
   •	Introductions

Class #2: Editing/Revising
   •	Body Paragraphs
   •	Topic Sentences
   •	Conclusions

Class #3: Polishing
   •	Counter-arguments
   •	Transitions
   •	Word Choice
   •	Sentence Structure
   •	Conventions

During each class, students will follow along with a Nearpod presentation to learn about various writing skills, followed by a series of discussions and evaluations of textual examples from sample essay prompts. Half of the class will focus on lecture and discussion, and the other half of the class will give students the opportunity to practice writing different parts of a five-paragraph persuasive essay. 

After Class #3, students will write a five-paragraph persuasive essay from a choice of essay prompts. The students will have 72 hours after Class #3 to submit it via the Outschool Classroom (in either a PDF or a Google Docs link) in order to receive detailed teacher feedback.

Orientación para padres

Some classes will use Nearpod to complete writing assignments and/or review class materials, but Nearpod does not require students to create an account. Students will be asked to enter their first name only when entering the website so that assignments can be tracked by the teacher (content remains anonymous to other students). One option for submitting the final essay is to use Google Docs. Google Docs does require an email to use its services; however, the link that the student provides to the teacher does not share any personal information (it only gives access to the essay for the teacher to review and add feedback). No other students will have access to this essay link as long as it is sent directly to the teacher (and not posted on the public classroom page). The other option to submit the final essay is to send a PDF through Adobe Acrobat. This is a free program that does not require any registration or personal information.
