What is Writing?

A.  a means of communication

B.  a form of expression

C.  a way to transform thoughts into words

D. all of the above

If you answered D, you are correct!  Writing is all these things and more.  No matter the career, the ability to write and communicate effectively are essential.  This course will give students the extra training necessary to achieve crucial communication and writing skills.  The class was developed for students in the 6^th – 8^th grades, and it meets Georgia Standards of Excellence (GSE).  

The All-Write Lab capitalizes on the fascination young people have with multi-media and uses interactive techniques to make writing more accessible.  “All-Write will put FUN, in the fundamentals”.  Students learn to conceptualize, draft, revise, edit, and 'publish' a final written work or essay. Every writing project is designed to improve writing, and oral presentation skills. The students are given an Interactive Notebook (INB).  They use the notebook to store weekly writing activities and instructions.  Students will also read and analyze other written works.  

The ultimate goal of this course is to promote a learning lifestyle, not formulaic procedures.  The top priority is to help students become comfortable expressing their thoughts with a curriculum that inspires creativity and critical thinking. 

Grades will be based on homework, quizzes, papers, class participation and special projects.
