4 青年作家方形論文寫作入門 1 英文 - 小團體

This introduces students to the concept of essay writing using the 4 square writing method. Students will write an expository, a persuasive, a descriptive  and a narrative essay 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. Students need to have a basic understanding of paragraph structure and MUST be able to write 5 sentence paragraphs. We will be building on that skill. Essays should be typed as it is easier to give feedback on longer pieces of writing. Parents may help with the typing process as younger students may have a harder time typing. I just ask that parents do not make corrections on their child's work when typing for them:)  Homework can take anywhere from 1 to 2 hours a week depending on the type of essay we are working on. Students are evaluated on their finished essays. 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.
