-- Awareness of rules for grammar and mechanics (Writing)

Read several articles from "News For You". Each article was accompanied by a variety of writing

exercises. Class really got into the writing. Much focus has been spent on getting them to write first and

then do the editing later. Making writing a part of every class has really helped get them used to the idea

of writing as more than another chore.
