Today, we completed our first Writing Project of the Year. My goals for students was to have strong ideas that were organized into three paragraphs. We discussed the basic structure of a paragraph. Students also had a handout describing the main parts that should be included in each paragraph. Some students have shown outstanding commitment to a great letter.
Tonight, students are to edit their essay with the checklist they are bringing home. Editing is simply "polishing". Please help your child and have a discussion about spellings, capitalizations etc.... as outlined on their handout.
Tomorrow, we will write our final drafts in class, thanking our service members for the great work that they do both in Sioux Falls, and around our country.
