Lesson 12 – Introduction to Essays

Quizlet

We took another quiz on the NAWL 1-3 set. If your score was below 85%, keep practicing the Test for each set on your own time until you get 85% or more on each set.

In the next lesson, there will be a quiz on the NAWL 1-4 sets.

RF
We did with Reading Fluency (RF) practice again with The Language of Shakespeare. Update your RF Log on Google Sheets.

EWr
We did not have enough time to do Extensive Writing (EWr) during the lesson. Use your smartphone's timer function and write for 10 minutes at home. The topic this time is My Best (or worst) Christmas Memory. How many words could you write? Could you reach your best score? Update your EWr Log on Google Sheets.
