[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's great to meet kids where they are to engage them, but I don't like expecting them to do work based on a bad habit. Teachers, please,. Be inclusive and offer reasonable choices: Submit a page of text in one of the following forms, or a similar one of your own design, expressing a conversation between these two characters. * a spoken dialogue * a Twitter exchange * back and forth notes passed in a school class. * Google docs comments chat Create a picture and write a paragraph caption, in style similar to one of these: * an Instagram post * a photo print with a description * framed gallery art with a placard. * a book front and back cover [/quote] My kids utterly hate assignments like this. They want clear instructions on [b]one[/b] style of writing so they can improve their skills in that style. They don't want a menu of options.[/quote] Do they really need to improve tweeting skills? [/quote] No. But nor do they need to work on their Google Docs comments, Instagram captions, art gallery placards, or school note-passing skills.[/quote]
