  2. What is WAC • Writing in all subject areas rather than only English Language Arts Class • Focuses on : • Content Knowledge • Assessment • Content Specific Writing Skills

  3. Why Wacby Steve Peha • Reason #1: Written output is a great way to assess student knowledge. • Reason #2: Writing is the essential skill students need as they enter adult life. • Reason #3: Helping students learn to express themselves with confidence in all subject areas can contribute to improvements in behavior and self-esteem.

  4. Reason #4: Students who write clearly, think clearly. And students who think clearly have a better chance of navigating their way through the obstacles of adolescence. • Reason #5: Writing is power. ( students need to understand and control their lives, to shape their future and define their dreams.)
