Today we began our Big 10 Reading and Writing Project. This project will take us up until Holiday Break. In an effort to create a College-Going Culture in room 11, students will be researching their universities in Readers' Workshop and writing opinion pieces in Writers' Workshop. Our goal is convince other Riverside students to aspire to attend our Big Ten University. We'll research information like the top majors at our university, our university's location , weather, campus, etc. During this project, students will learn effective opinion writing elements as well as informational reading strategies, all aligned with the Common Core State Standards.
Homework:
