Welcome to the Writing Korner

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

Welcome to the Writing Korner.  As you all know, the way our students are going to be assessed in writing is changing.  Sixth and seventh grade teachers were exposed to the new practice assessments last school year, while the eighth grade teachers prepared for FCAT Writes.  

In order to meet the new challenges presented by a brand new assessment system, I thought it would be beneficial to create a virtual meeting area to share ideas.  The Writing Korner is that area.  Click on the tabs above for valuable information such as rubrics and item specs.

Please feel free to post resources, ideas or random musings as you see fit.  

Have a great year,

Matt
