¡Escribelo! - Parte 1 - Todas las razones para escribir (inglés, escritura)

There is no prerequisite requirement for this class.

I am a natural writer and I truly enjoy bringing new writers to the table to share in the conversation.  I've also learned that sometimes the standard expository paragraph rules don't fire every kid and creativity and imagination can be a better place to start.  It is from this base I created this 15-week writing course for the early writer, whatever grade they are in.  

The Details
In this Writing Component of my 3Rs 3rd - 5th Grade class, we will meet for 15 weeks.  

A full syllabus will be available on the first day of class for enrolled students.  So that you are able to see the breadth of our semester I will include approximate dates and project plans for the semester.  These particular themes are subject to change.  Please, make sure to reference the Outschool Classroom Page for final assignments.

Your student will keep a journal of 3 sentences per day for at least 3 days per week and work on one writing project per week.  All projects are due to be finished at the start of the following week EXCEPT week 15, where we will complete our project within the Outschool Classroom Page.  Homework will take approximately 1/2 to 2 hours per week, depending on the project.  All projects will be uploaded either to the Outschool Classroom or to me personally by the day before class at midnight. If it is sent to me privately, please reference 3-5 Write it! S1.  Students may handwrite, type and save as a .doc or .pdf file, or link to a google doc to turn in homework.

Class dates below are subject to change in different sections, please see dates in class registration and class syllabus found in the first post of the Classroom after enrollment.
