Article of the Week
Each week all 6th grade English Language Arts teachers will be assigning an article to read! Every article students read, they will be asked to write a reflection on the topic and a reaction to what they read. We are trying to develop 6th grade active critical thinkers and readers, therefore, each nonfiction article will be thought provoking. It will be the job of the student to discover their opinions and express their thoughts on paper. I will be attaching the expectations of each reflection and my grading rubric. Also, I will provide an online resource of the article or supplemental resource video or website weekly.
Twice a month, students will judge, critique, and respond to each other on this blog site about the article of the week. At the beginning I will post a question and students will respond and respond to someone else in any class. However, by the end, I will allow the students to run the forum after experience and models!
