Persuasive Writing Baseline Assessment

All seventh graders will be writing a baseline persuasive essay on Monday 10/3, Tuesday 10/4, and Wednesday 10/5.  This piece will give me an idea of what each student already knows about how to write a persuasive essay without any prior instruction.  This data is important since we will be learning how to write a persuasive essay later this year.   Students need not be nervous or prepare anything in advance.  However, please bring 2 pencils already sharpened to class on Monday 10/3, Tuesday 10/4, and Wednesday 10/5.
