Test-taking writing stinks, but writing itself is so much fun to teach. I think so, anyway.I used a pocket chart to build the basic paragraph. Then I wrote the   sentences from the lesson on sentence strips to build the paragraph. The   first day we worked with verb tense.   Throughout the week, we worked on a different skill every day.

Buzzing with Ms. B: Good Expository Introductions... it's time to let "Hi, my name is..." go.   To help them develop a better sense of what makes a good introduction   (we're specifically calling them introductions in expository, rather   than 'beginnings', in the hopes of differentiating from a narrative), we   planned the following lesson.  We chose to initially focus on three different types of introductions.   Asking a question, a surprising fact, and description.
