Teacher’s corner:
French : In preparation for the writing
assignment on our Placemat activity we analyzed 3 paragraph exemplars to
determine what makes it a “4”, a “3” and a “2”. We compiled a list of what
needs to be in a paragraph in order to make it a “4”:
- Detailed topic sentence
- Detailed concluding sentence
- As many details as possible in the main
body of the paragraph
- Reasons explaining likes and dislikes
- Synonyms and antonyms of J’aime
- Transition words to create flow
- Rich vocabulary
- Correct grammar, spelling, punctuation
This list will be made
into a rubric for students to check against when they are writing. Students are
also using given exemplars to guide their writing.
