PLEASE NOTE:
At this time no new sections will be created. This ongoing class is only for students who have already completed "Essay Writing with the Four Square Method for Beginners Part 1" ( https://outschool.com/classes/essay-writing-with-the-4-square-method-for-beginners-part-1-english-small-group-xG7b1ijK).
Students will continue their essay writing journey by writing a different essay each week using the four square writing method. The 4 Square Writing Method gives students a formula to utilize to help them feel more confident in their writing abilities. Class will be held through discussions, guided and independent practice and sharing of completed work. Essays should be typed as it is easier to share those and give feedback. Homework can take anywhere from 1 to 2 hours a week depending on the type of essay we are working on and the students ability to type and generate ideas. Students are evaluated on their finished essays which must be posted in the classroom each week. Teacher feedback is given privately in writing each week in the teacher section. This is a learning process so perfection is not the goal as this concept is something that students need continuous practice with. That said, students who do not complete the weekly writing assignments, review their feedback, and apply it to the next essay will not get the full benefit of the class.  
*Note: Depending on class size, there is a chance we will go over 45 minutes by 5-10 minutes.
