My Project

This project is designed to provide engaging materials for English Learners to use as they work within the language domain of writing. Whether practicing vocabulary, generating ideas, or crafting a piece of writing, these materials will offer students opportunities to grow as a writer who uses language to convey their voice.

Writing can be a powerful way for students to share their thoughts and ideas.

For students learning the language, writing can be the last domain in which students develop proficiency. We will use these materials during our language development lessons and I know students will enjoy the variety of activities that foster their development and use of language through writing.
