EVENT DETAILS
Join UtSTA for a one hour virtual event with Brittny Amott
Yucky Worms by Vivian French
This session will highlight strategies for using Yucky Worms to discover ways to help students collect information and deepen their understanding. Teachers will explore how to use a focus question to guide students in crafting expository writing informed by the book and personal exploration.
Objective: Our goal is to demonstrate how literature can be used as a catalyst for developing analytical writing skills within the context of scientific inquiry. By using selected books as mentor texts, this session will guide teachers in initiating and enhancing students' analytical writing abilities, intertwined with scientific practices. The focus will be on leveraging inquiry-based writing exercises to achieve proficiency in the writing standards.
