Community Service Essay NEWS


Dear Families,

We've included a copy of the revision and editing checklists that the students have been using to review their community service essays under the PARENT FILES section of our 4th grade website.  For this essay, students are required to self revise/edit, and then get a peer to do the same before coming to conference with their teacher.  

You can be the “peer revisor" and "peer editor" for your child, too!  This is a great way to assist your student with his/her essay at home.

Here are some important upcoming deadlines:
·         The Community Service portion of this project should be completed in full by Monday, May 9th.
·         All five paragraphs (rough draft version) of the essay are due by Friday, May 13th.
