Content-Area Writing: Animals of China & Asia

In this course, students practice informative paragraph writing by studying animals of China and Asia. Each week, students will identify key information from nonfiction texts and organize it into a clear, structured paragraph using an IEW-inspired approach that emphasizes outlines and sentence structure. Students who are ready will have the opportunity to extend their learning by developing a multi-paragraph essay at the end of the course.

Prerequisite: Students should be able to read and write multi-word sentences independently.
