Taking another glance at these two texts was very helpful and informative in prepping for the upcoming writing of our final unit. Also, looking at the State Standards and keeping familiar with them has also helped me with ideas for my Teaching Writing Unit and lesson plans.
Indeed, I intend to use ideas from these sources to develop my plan, and especially tying them to the corresponding Standards and their accompanying benchmarks!
I have many specific modes of writing and structures that I am thinking of including in my unit. I have also been very impressed this semester with the writing mini lessons and workshops that Professor Thompson has implemented for our benefit. Specifically, I am excited to include in this unit the Seed-Sentence Workshop, the Fable Form Workshop and the Multi-Genre Writing Workshop, as well as one or two others!
I would also like to include traditional lessons in Biography Writing and News/Report Writing, as well as Journal Writing and an all-important lesson on writing Research Papers! I will be interested in any comments/ suggestions from all of you out there (esp. from LAED 445)!
