여행 부트캠프에 대한 에세이를 쓰세요

Writing well begins with writing about what you enjoy! This class will help students understand how to organize their thoughts and think logically, while writing about an exciting trip they took. It’s up to the students to choose the trip but they are welcome to make up an imaginary story; perhaps a recent trip to the Minecraft world, or the islands of One Piece? This fun and engaging course will help students see the joy of writing while exercising their creativity muscle. 

       We will spend time brainstorming and looking at how to structure an essay. Then we will use Mr. Beck’s famous ‘cheat sheet’ to start writing. Then comes the editing process… it will get messy, and students will learn the importance of cutting out the ‘fluff’. We will also explore essential elements of critical thinking in order to make an essay that is exciting for the reader. Additionally, grammar, punctuation, and spelling will be reviewed. At the end of this course students will be proud to show off their 5-paragraph essay about an interesting event in their life.
