WrAP It Up!


We have the WrAP test tomorrow, and we have spent some time discussing and commenting on other students' writing. We looked at one example from the WPP website, and the screenshot below is from that discussion. What do you want to remember tomorrow when you start writing? What do you want to improve on in your writing?

Moment of Truth!

It has been exciting in our room lately as everyone is finishing up their narrative writing. We use an excellent program called WPP (Writing Practice Program). When we submit our writing entries, we get a score that assesses us in six different categories. The highest score to get is a 36, and it's really fun to see the anticipation before someone gets their score back. This was yesterday when Baugh submitted, and he got a 36!! Go, Baugh!

What do you like about WPP? Do you think it helps you develop your writing skills?
