Book: Thirty-six Stars (2nd Edition): Writing Perfect Essays This program includes a compact writing portfolio for middle and high school students. The portfolio contains fifteen total prompts. There are five prompts for each grade level, 6 thru 8 or 9 thru 11. Additionally, the format of the prompts offers an option to the student of responding expositorily or persuasively to the writing situation. The program also includes a hands-on guide that channels and directs each student's writing efforts on a paragraph-by-paragraph basis. The use of the guide / assessment rubric makes the peer editing strategy infinitely viable as an assessment method. Secondly, it satisfies the need for immediate feedback. This tool affords the teacher the opportunity to utilize the hands and eyes of the class members, without relying on their judgment or current skill level. Finally, the appendices section contains instructive writing packets designed to aid students in developing higher level writing skills through the mastery of phrases and the mimicry writing process. It also contains a vocabulary appendix with meaningful terms that will fit properly and impressively in any of their prompt responses. The packets employ a novel approach that fires the imagination of even the least colorful minded, showing and demonstrating how easy and how much fun creative writing can be.
