課堂經歷
This is a course that is ongoing for 30 weeks. Feel free to drop in and out as you would like. We will be using our imaginations, creativity and writing skills to engage a reader. This will be a prompt driven class with a mini lesson and lots of time to grow into your writing style. The teacher will be creating and sharing too, while offering feedback and support as students demand it. You can share, you don't have to share. You can talk, laugh and engage other students for their ideas and feedback. Very low stress course. I teach within the common core standards and incorporate writing standards into my minilessons. I offer minilessons that make sense to our writing task. After the minilesson, students begin the writing process. They can choose to utilize my prompt or just write within the creative idea of the day. Teacher and students will write together. Students can actively engage with the teacher and ask for suggestions or read sections they are excited about. The class is very laid back where creativity is sure to flourish. If you are looking for grammar, spelling, sentence structure lessons I can incorporate my 1-1-tutoring to make the transition seamless.
