Homework Due Tuesday/Wednesday: 2/28 & 29

Students and Parents:
FCAT Writes is Tuesday morning, 2/28.

I am extremely proud of every student's growth and feel confident that each will demonstrate at or above grade level performance, as each student has demonstrated consistency along the way!!! I am very, very proud.

Students, last week, you had to write an Expository Introduction and Body Paragraph 1 ONLY for the PROMPT below:

Write to explain the difference between a FCAT essay score 4 and 6. Please refer to your FCAT Writing Essay Rubric for accurate facts and details.

Now, complete that Essay.

------------------------------------

#2: Log on to EssaySmart and choose Persuasive. From there, choose any prompt that you have not done. Before beginning your essay, set a timer to 45 minutes.
You are going to plan, write, and edit your essay within 45 minutes. Upload at the end of 45 minutes and get your score. If you you did not score a 5, revise until you do - the revision is untimed.

The purpose of this task is to simulate what you will experience on Tuesday - FCAT Writes Assessment Test day.

- B Day students - both assignments are due Tuesday, 2/28
- A Day students - you will receive these assignments Monday during class. It will be due that Wednesday, 2/29.

Have a great weekend.
