HELPING TO MAKE PROFESSIONAL AUTHORS

I am soooo proud of my former students!

I have had several students who are

published authors!

My last few years of teaching, the

students had to test in the

Direct Writing Assessment.

It was being tested on the

Six Traits of Writing.

I didn't have the high scores that

some of my teammates had, 

but, all of my kids except 1 or 2

a year, passed.

You had to have a score of 18/30

to pass.

But, my last year of teaching,

my lowest score was 24/30,

and, I had 6 students get a

perfect score!!!
Most of my students got a
scores of 26-28!

HUZZAH!!!

I have had students published

with books, poetry, thesis', music books,

articles in the LDS Church magazine for teenagers,
 The New Era,
and a symphony!

Here's my latest writer.

Amy McClain was moved into my

class from another class part way

through the year.

She was super nice and smart.

Here is her Facebook post, 

and response to my

This response is another reason

why I loved teaching!!!
