Aim: How can we get the Research articles and Open topic articles to rough draft for the magazine project?

Do Now: The following are examples of open topic types of articles, see if you can guess what type of article is each one.

Be the first student to guess which type of article each one is:

Okay, now study each of these, how can you make your open topic articles interesting to teens?

Now, spend a few minutes getting back into your GROUPS. EVERYONE should read the PERSUASIVE ARTICLE and SEE WHAT IT NEEDS TO BE MADE BETTER!

GIVE SUGGESTIONS TO THE AUTHOR- What does he or she need to do for his or next draft?

NOW continue working on your Research articles and the two Open topic articles. You should have ROUGH DRAFTS by the end of today.
