For our seventh tutoring session, PJ and I worked on a school essay. The essay required him to incorporate three different articles into a 5-paragraph essay. The articles included information about coyotes, squirrels, and pigeons. Since PJ had already constructed the essay in school, we mainly focused on the revising and editing process. I explained the importance of including an introduction, and we talked about referencing the prompt when trying to decide what information to include. I think PJ could see through the revision process how he left out key facts that would help with the development of his essay. I hope practicing with this school essay will better prepare him for his next writing assignment! :)
