Instructional Ideas

  • Create an anchor chart or visuals to help clarify essential vocabulary, such as coherent, appropriate, and adequate
  • Identify patterns that emerged in the writing to share with the whole class

Classroom Considerations

  • Lesson seven of eight in the sequence of the Grade 8 ELA Module 3B, Unit 3
  • Make the exercise more effective by returning the End of Unit 3 Assessments with feedback

Pros

  • The presentation rubric is simple and easy to follow
  • Teaches practical skills beyond the classroom

Cons

  • None
