ELA 20: Dec 4 Writing period 1 of 3…
- Students were told as we read the novel that they would be writing a literary essay analyzing one of the dynamic characters. They had a chart that they were to add supporting details to as we read. This will make their brainstorming / planning process much less time consuming or frustrating.
Does this time chart match your habits?
- With those charts already completed, they were able to start their essay writing today by choosing three supporting details and planning the body paragraphs for each.
- The way the “in class” essay will work is all their writing papers will remain here in the classroom. They will get them at the beginning of the class to work on but have to hand it in when the class it over. They will have three writing periods for this, not including the half class they had for brainstorming. Any extra time some may need they can write during spares, lunch or after school.
