Purposeful, Transparent, Contextual, Building Expertise

Purposeful and Transparent Writers present information to persuade others to share their opinion. Students need to examine information from all perspectives to make judgments or informed decisions. Contextual Real life reading material, used in the classroom, allows students to look at real world issues while developing reading skills and strategies. Building Expertise Letting students look at their own personal viewpoints and then moving to look at author's viewpoints allows them to take on other roles and increase their understanding of perspective.
