"Words are our most
inexhaustible source of magic."
-J.K. Rowling
It’s on! We launched our Argumentative Writing unit last week. I’m sure everyone can agree that 7th graders have a natural tendency toward argument! It’s an absolute joy to teach students to back up their claims with evidence and fight for what they believe in. Ask your students what topic they have chosen to research and write about. This big-hearted group is poised and ready to champion their causes and learn that their words can make a difference.
By the way, I need our book club novels returned to Dartmouth at your earliest convenience. Just swing by campus anytime between 8:30 and 5:00pm and drop it in the box outside the office labeled, “Dragons.” Make sure to write your name, my name, and ELA class period on note tucked in the text so I can check you off the list. Thanks! Comments are closed.
