- Prompt
- What do you think about prior to developing a writing assignment?
- Response (5 minutes to do it)
- First thing I would do is create a learning objective for the assignment and a rubric for assessing it. I would share this with the students and ask if they understand the assessment and prompt for any suggestions or things they might want to change. I would then show some examples of quality work and have them assess them using the rubric. Lastly I will ask them to list 3 topics they might want to write about. Finally, I would show them some techniques of how to structure their writing in terms of content and flow of ideas.
- Share with peer
- Interesting: teacher would do an initial draft then work with the students to polish it up
