Writing Workshop | Cyberjournal Reflection
Today, you will construct your first reflective blog post for this unit. Writers develop and clarify ideas by interacting with other writers. Writers develop, connect, and reflect on ideas presented by other writers. In doing so, they determine their personal opinion on a topic. This opinion is then developed into an argument using information gathered from other writers. This information and insight adds to their own writing via direct and indirect evidence. Today, before we begin reading and interacting with the book, consider your initial ideas about human rights in a cyberjournal. Tomorrow, we will read the first chapter of the novel together, then add to your cyberjournal based on the information and ideas presented in chapter one.
