Writing Process

This week, students in 3L completed part of the writing process.  First, they brainstormed their thinking, then they completed an outline, next they wrote their first draft.  After they completed their paragraph, they met with a peer and discussed what they could improve for their final copy. Students talked about the quality of the main idea, closing sentence and supporting details as well as transition words, sentence structure, and grammar.  Next week, students will complete their second draft, taking into account the feedback from their peer edit, and finally they will use a rubric for a self evaluation / reflection before having a conference with Mrs. Largy.
