2年生レベルの基礎ライティングスキル

😎 For Summer classes, there will be NO MEETINGS the week of June 30th. ☀️

** ✏️ This course covers foundational writing skills for second grade level writing to build a solid foundation before learning more structured forms of writing such as opinion, informative, and narrative writing.

🍎  This class is taught using systematic and explicit teaching methods to ensure writers write interesting, complete sentences with elaboration, and paragraphs with a topic sentence, expanded relevant details, and a closing sentence to build a solid writing foundation.

Using an ‘I do, we do, you do’ approach, we will target foundational writing skills and concepts. I will explain a new skill or concept, model the skill, practice the skill with students, then have students practice what they learned. Students will engage in daily writing assignments, setting them up for success in writing. Skills will progress from easy to more difficult, ensuring skill mastery to build writing fluency and confidence. 

Sharing my slides, I will guide students through each of these steps as we discuss and practice new skills. Students will annotate on the screen, use personal whiteboards, complete worksheets, and write in journals as part of the learning and practicing portions of the class. 

*** 🗓 The schedule below shows the sequence in which we will cover skills and concepts. The pace may be altered as needed to allow time for students to achieve mastery, based on the needs of group. The goal is to set the students up for success in writing with confidence. 

**Once students have mastered the foundational writing skills, I encourage them to move on to more structured forms of writing which I offer in subsequent classes.
