2nd Annual On-Demand Writing Marathon

This month Heritage kicked off its second annual on-demand writing marathon review in the gym! Writers in 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade, along with their teachers, reading specialists, and principal will participate in a marathon review of the three modes of writing: narrative, opinion, and information.

The purpose of this unique and purposeful time together is three fold:
1. It serves to bring pencil to paper.
2. It reminds us what we know and what we still have to learn about each mode of writing.
3. It allows our brains to practice transferring from one mode to another in an on-demand setting.

Remember to ask your 3rd, 4th, and 5th grader about their experience.
