Start your year off by putting meaning behind writing. This lesson focuses on why we write, what we write, and what we need to do in order to write successfully. Students will be engaged in small group discussion, whole class discussion, guided notes, and will be assessed with a 3-2-1 Exit Slip at the end of the lesson.
