Lesson: Lesson: Today the students started the process planning sheet for their how-to papers. After some group discussion, the students picked their topics. We talked about attention grabbing first sentences, the audience and purpose of an essay, and other components of the introduction paragraph. After sharing an example, the students completed the introduction section of their process planning sheet. We practiced writing procedural steps. With the time left in class, the students began writing their own steps. We did all of this on the Process Planning sheet. We viewed the following presentation slides.
