This week, I learned that idea development is the foundation for good writing. Students can develop ideas for writing in many different ways. For example, they can develop ideas by using strategies such as brainstorming, listing, and prewriting. These strategies allow students to really dig deep and make connections with their own personal experiences. It gives students the opportunity to think about what message they are trying to convey to their intended audience.
Five words that describe me are: respectful, loyal, committed, dedicated, and honest. I believe you must be honest with yourself before you can be honest with those around you.

I agree with you that idea development is the foundation for good writing. It is amazing to think that students will be take a one line topic and develop it using these strategies. You have a lovely family, so it is easy to see you as your five descriptive words. See you Thursday!
