Each week students will practice a different writing method or genre. Each class will begin with a quick mini-lesson on the genre or method of writing for the week. Students will then be given a prompt. The class will work together to brainstorm ideas. The final part of class will be focused on getting students started on their writing. 

Writing Prompts will vary based on the topic of the week. The information needed to fully and completely answer prompts will also be provided.
Students may also post to the classroom ideas about what they might like to write about. These ideas may be voted on by students and may appear in future classes.
