Clase de escritura: ¡Actualidad y pensamiento crítico!

General Info:
Older and younger students are welcome as well. This class is for Middle or High School students who need to learn writing skills who are also interested in current or interesting events. We cover everything from technology to world issues in this class and have fun doing it. This class is all about learning, growing, and critically thinking. 

About the Teacher:
I am a certified teacher in various topics, which I teach on Outschool, and I hold a Bachelor’s degree and two Master’s degrees. I strive to make writing fun and give students a place to have discussions with each other. 

About this Class: 
This class is geared towards late Middle School to early High School at all levels of writing. Each week we cover a new and interesting topic. It can be anything from current events, and history, to fun topics they enjoy discussing. Some weeks we might have trivia, discussion, videos, etc. The class does not have an end date, but we will take breaks over holidays and summer. Some weeks we practice the skills we learn, and others we cover more content. 

Following class each week, I will put a message in the Outschool classroom with a link to a Google folder where I provide their weekly writing activity for the week and any additional research information 

Grading and Feedback:
I provide an overall grade for the class but require at least a writing activity turned in weekly to me weekly. I require your student to be enrolled for at least 8 weeks to receive a grade. Please let me know how in-depth of edits and grading you would like when you enroll. Google Docs is required for writing, and there is a document in the folder each week showing how to share work with me.

Helpful Information
This class is structured for 5th-8th or higher. The longer they are enrolled, the more they will get practice and get to grow in writing.
