Week 11/13-11/17

Last week, students wrote their Hero Definition Essay during class and received both peer and teacher feedback to improve their writing during the draft process.

This week, students will peer edit their essays in groups of four and then conduct a final revision of their writing before turning it on on Tuesday, November 14 by 11:59 p.m. The rest of the week, students will share and reflect on their essay by posting it to their blogs, commenting on the writing of students in other periods, and reflecting on the writing process via FlipGrid. I will hopefully have these essays assessed by the time of the next blog posting--if not, I will finish assessing them during Thanksgiving break.
