Character Traits: paragraph

Good Morning,

Please read this week's Work on Writing Assignment

Source: your notes from last week

Today, please read the assignment carefully. You will read over your character traits from last week. On the right hand side of your notebook, you will write a complete paragraph about the main idea of your notes.

Remember to set up your page the way we always do e.g. date on the left side of the top line, leave 1-2 spaces, print the title (which is the topic of your article) in the middle (capitalized and underlined)

Expectations: You are expected to….

·       write about the Main Idea in your first (topic) sentence

·       write five supporting sentences providing details about the main idea

·       write a concluding sentence

·       write double spaced (ensure that your printing is neat and easy to read)

·       do your housekeeping (check for capitals, period, spelling)

·       edit, with a peer, using an edit sheet

·       staple your edit sheet above your paragraph (be sure not staple more than one page)

I look forward to reading your paragraphs.

Love, Mrs. French
