Name: Writing Concluding Sentences Lesson
Brand: Activated Education
Availability: InStock

Description

This is a short lesson on writing concluding sentences using color-coded writing strategies compatible with Step Up to Writing. I used this in my intervention class of 7th grade students who were not including conclusions in their paragraphs, but it works well as a lesson introducing the skill and can be used in small group or with a whole class. The lesson includes guided practice and independent practice based on high interest topics (popular song and movie). An optional printable student response sheet is included, to be used as a formative assessment either as an exit ticket or entrance task following the lesson.

This is a great resource for writing prompts AND concluding statements. Discussing these statements with my students has opened up so many great conversations, which is especially needed. Thanks so much for this.

Hi, I just wanted to comment that I like how you incorporated places in the materials for students to respond. These types of activities help students when they need to go back to their work when they struggle with memory and processing. Thank for the free material... Elizabeth
