Expository Essay- How To Read

Picture
3rd period brainstorm :)
Our first essay back is an expository essay! What is that? You are writing a textbook or Wikipedia article about "How To Read." In class we already wrote our introductory paragraphs. Why do we need to read more, practice, and try again. Why is reading, the best way to get better at both reading and writing?

Each class we will continue to discuss what steps we take to read better, organize those steps, and explain each. Please use pictures, charts, outlines, lists, examples- whatever helps you get your point across. This is by you, for you. All first semester we worked on strategies. Now it is your turn to own it. :) Summer is coming! You are writing your own textbook for your future English classes. :)

Time frame: We will work on this in class the next two weeks.
Due typed, on turnitin.com, and in class 1/21-22
