LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON –
“First Day Writing Assignment”
By Connie Casserly
Grades 6-12
Since writing is an
integral part of my teaching, I like to obtain an idea of each student's
writing skills the very first day of school. Once we review the Syllabus for
the class, I give students this assignment.
Not only does it help me
to gauge how to focus the writing elements we will need to cover during the
year, but it also serves as a smooth transition for the students from the
summer break to the new school term.
I love how this
assignment gets the students thinking in an analytic manner, as the ability use
higher level thinking skills and writing are life-long partners.
