Writing is such a huge part of our daily lives! We use it in so many ways, shapes, and forms every single day.

This year in Writing, our class is working on a variety of different types of writings so we can learn multiple ways to express our thoughts, views, and opinions. Students will also learn how to use an editing rubric, proofread their own writing, as well as edit peer writings.

We will be writing:

Friendly Letters (and mailing them with envelopes filled out correctly)

5 Sentence Paragraphs

"How to" Paragraphs

Reflections

Autobiographies

Biographies

Journal Entries

Realistic Fiction

Mysteries

5 Senses Paragraphs

Poetry

Short Stories

• Be sure to watch for published writings to come home at the end of each writing unit!
