Communications

Please Note: Each week of instruction is a full writing cycle for a different writing genre. Students should have a completed essay on Day 5 of each week. Please note the revisions detailed below as they differ week by week. It is advised to have 120 minutes of independent writing time for each essay in Unit 6 to build students’ stamina and provide an opportunity for students to practice budgeting their time. If it is not possible to arrange 120 minutes for one day, track the time over multiple days to help students get used to completing their essays in the time frame provided on F.A.S.T. Writing Assessment. Suggestions are made throughout the lesson guidance each week to help identify opportunities for additional independent writing time.

Week 1 REVISED: Argumentative essay; new concepts: student created planning guide and budgeting time

To provide students with an opportunity to write to an argumentative text-based prompt, revised Communication mini-lessons are provided for Week 1. Revised lessons and related materials may be accessed through the Lesson Guidance for Unit 6. The revised lessons do not have a title which is reflected in the mapping below.
It is recommended that students become familiar with creating their own planning guides on blank paper to practice with F.A.S.T. Writing Assessment expectations. This procedure is explicitly taught in the revised lessons for Week 1. Additionally, students are introduced to the idea of budgeting time during formal writing assessments. An anchor chart with suggested times is presented in the revised lessons as well.

Week 2 REVISED: Expository essay using a primary and a secondary source

Although there is no way to predict what type of text may be used for assessment purposes, it is suggested that the lesson be taught as presented in Benchmark Advance. The analyzation of primary and secondary texts on the same event supports the mastery of reading across genres (R.3.1-R.3.3), particularly R.3.3: Compare and contrast accounts of the same event using primary and/or secondary sources.
REVISED mentor and student prompts are linked under Unit 6 Lesson Guidance to align with F.A.S.T. formatting expectations.

Week 3 REVISED: Argumentative essay

To align with the B.E.S.T. Communication Benchmarks’ expectations, a second source text is provided.
REVISED mentor and student prompts are linked under Unit 6 Lesson Guidance to align with F.A.S.T. formatting expectations.
