[quote=Anonymous]Burke parent here… one of my favorite assignments that my sixth grader had at Burke was a “passerby writing assignment.” The students sat on the corner (benefits of an urban school) to write a full story about a passerby. The story had to include a full plot line. My daughter loves creative writing so this was right up her alley. Burke overall is a truly creative school. As students progress the assignments reflect progressive rigor but never lose a creative bent. [/quote]
