I've run out of 6-Traits lessons! WHAT NOW?!!!

 

Steps to Designing a Trait Activity/Lesson

     1. Choose a quality lesson done in the past or one you're developing.

     2. Ask, "What writing task will enhance the concept(s) I'm already teaching?"

     3. Look for "trigger" words that relate to a trait.

     4. Zoom in on specific points from the "5" level of that trait rubric.

     5. Develop a prompt using RAFTS

     6. Re-imagine the lesson to include the steps in teaching a trait (see below).

 

Steps to Teaching the Traits

     1. Use literature

     2. Work on a writing activity

     3. Use sample papers

     4. Peer respond/edit each others work

     5. Teacher assesses papers
