Reid and I finished reading the passage about the hockey player, Dustin Brown. We brainstormed the writing prompt, "I'm not impressed with Dustin Brown" using a visual mapping technique (a strategy that works well for non-linear thinkers). Reid then wrote a paragraph arguing his opinion. I encouraged him to write more complex sentences using an appositive phrase and a semi-colon to connect two short sentences. We editing the paragraph for correct capitalization, handwriting, punctuation and spelling. Great job, Reid!
