  3. Lesson Objectives • Objectives: • Teachers will be able to begin creating an animated public service announcement that promotes involvement in the San Joaquin Valley Writing Project. • Teachers will be able to articulate in writing benefits of the San Joaquin Valley Writing Project and write persuasively to encourage other teachers to become involved.

  4. Standards Addressed Common Core: Writing Standards for Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects 6–12 • 6. Use technology, including the Internet, to produce, publish, and update individual or shared writing products, taking advantage of technology’s capacity to link to other information and to display information flexibly and dynamically. CSTP: California Standards for the Teaching Profession: Standard 1: Engaging and Supporting ALL Students in Learning • Connecting students’ prior knowledge, life experience,and interest with learning goals. • Using a variety of instructional strategies and resources to respond to students’ diverse needs • Facilitating learning experiences that promote autonomy, interaction and choice • Engaging students in problem solving, critical thinking and other activities that make subject matter meaningful

  5. Rationale • To meet the writing requirements of our modern society, schools must “give students a rich and diverse array of writing experiences (Because Writing Matters, Carl Nagin and National Writing Project, p 14).” • This lesson offers students a unique form of writing, a Public Service Announcement, which differs greatly from the standard five-paragraph essay.

  6. Rationale • Best practices in teaching writing place great importance on “audience, purpose and occasion” for writing, as referenced by Samuel Totten in his article, “Completing the Paradigm Shift to Process Writing: The Need to Lead.” • This assignment creates a real audience, purpose and occasion – to promote involvement in and support for the San Joaquin Valley Writing Project.

  7. Rationale • Carl Nagin and the National Writing Project (page 29) believe that “helping writers develop the fluency and competence to use a variety of technologies needs to be a key part of teaching writing.” • Naginexplains that “technology makes response, revision, and editing eminently more agreeable” and helps students build the mental concept that a draft is a “document in flux” that can be edited, revised and improved (page 29). • Further, technology allows one’s writing to be available to an audience of millions, lending value to the processes of revision and editing.

  8. Rationale • Howard Gardner, in his book The Unschooled Mind: How Children Think and How Schools Should Teach, suggests that in an ideal educational system, students should have “the opportunity to enter into the conversation of their culture (p. 263).” • Students need opportunities to develop writing skills using the media tools of the modern culture.

  9. Mini-Sneeze • Write – Pair – Share in your Journals (choose one) • What makes the SJVWP valuable to you? • How will your involvement in SJVWP affect your teaching? • Why should other teachers participate in future SJVWP Summer Institutes? • How is the SJVWP creating a paradigm shift in teaching writing?
