How do I write an assessment and/or an essay?
When writing an assessment, these steps are a resource to assist your writing:
1. Identify Topic, Purpose, Audience
This is probably determined based off of the task students are being asked to complete.
2. Brainstorm many possible supporting details
You will want students to brainstorm all relevant details so they have something to work from after they narrow down their TS.
3. Generate a complete Topic Sentence
The TS should be written out completely on the solid line of the outline.
4. Select, Categorize, Sequence Appropriate SD
Students use their brainstorm to determine the most relevant SD and most appropriate order.
5. Write notes for details on outline
After selecting the best SDs, students should add them (in note-taking form) to the dotted lines on their outline.
6. Generate complete CS
The last solid line of the outline is reserved for students to write their complete concluding sentence.
All students that want a job need to contact the work experience coordinator and get a work permit form.
Procedure for Students who need a work permit:
