For one student in particular it was the first time he saw his ideas in print!
At Highbush Public School, a class was learning about persuasive writing. The students in the class were given the topic of getting a class pet. After brainstorming a list of possible pets, they agreed that a fish would be a reasonable request. The students used Read & Write to get their ideas out and then to proofread. For one student in particular it was the first time he saw his ideas in print! Some wanted to include pictures of the fish they wanted and included it on their writing too. Thank you very much to the teacher for allowing me to share such a wonderful engaging lesson.
