This term you will be reading texts (short texts to start off with) that show the writer's perspective and opinion. You will read through these texts and then try and figure out what their opinion is. Check out the outline of what we will be doing on the document that is attached on the left side!
Everyone has an opinion and it is important that we feel comfortable to share this opinion in a respectful and interesting way.
To get things started you will complete a brainstorm. The brainstorm focuses on the question 'what happens when you don't use your voice?' There are following key questions that I would like for you to answer. Click on the image on the left to access the document. Enjoy!
