Opinion Writing: The Best Part of Me

For our most recent opinion writing piece the students completed these beautiful projects detailing what they most like about themselves.  This was a step by step process.  The students brainstormed their ideas in a web.  They began their writing with a topic sentence, put their brainstormed ideas into complete sentences, and added details to each idea.  The 2nd paragraph was to include a conclusion sentence.  We completed the project with a black and white photo. These opinion pieces range from humorous to heartfelt!  I love seeing them all up in the hallway with people gathered around reading our writing!
