What is Ms Edwards's Home Page?

It is the Home Page for 5-8 Writing and 8 Reading. This page directs students to their online resources.

The sidebar (at right) links to lesson plans and other resource pages. The resources the students need currently,

however, are listed below.

Please visit our new wiki: What Else?

What else could we:

write about
explain
describe
delete
brainstorm
research
revise

Writing is never done; there's always another word that would be more exact or engaging. I rewrote that sentence twice already! A first draft finds our thoughts and stirs our imagination, but it's often not clear, detailed, or organized. A writer looks at each section, and asks, "What else?" So our new site is dedicated to the wonderful words we will write this year, as we ask each other, What else?
