8th Grade--11/12

Today students looked at sample student hooks from past assignments in pairs, discussing why their assigned hook was strong and what they could to make their hooks strong in the same way. We then shared with each other our findings and discussed the importance of a strong opening when presenting our work to readers and publishers.

Students wrote for about thirty minutes, and we ended class by sharing sentences from our writing.
