Standard: RI 9-10.10, RI 11-12.10
Objective: Students will be able to recall and incorporate the 6 Basic Elements of Good Writing in their own creative writing sample. Do Now: Students will work independently to answer a prompt projected on the board (minimum of 5 complete sentences). Whole Class: Students will revisit their writing samples, but before they do, I'll show them an exemplar response to one of the creative writing prompts. We read through it as a class and touch on certain points and techniques that I feel they'll benefit from. After that, we'll read through another exemplar response, but this one will be from a professional writer. I'll point out the ways in which he incorporates the 6 Basic Elements of Good Writing into his excerpt. Independent: Students will work on their creative writing (the prompt from yesterday). Collaborative: Students will do several "pair and share"s throughout the period to summarize what they've learned and ask clarifying questions of their partner.
