Let’s get students writing about THEMSELVES first before we hand them a prompt. STAAR does not ask our kids to write literary analysis rather reflective & opinionated pieces plus we care about them. Let’s get busy writing & sharing our stories! @sheasalady @fortworthjasso

Anybody see a parallel in reducing the complexity of a school to a single grade?
