Delicious Opinions Yum!

During our last writing unit, we focused on opinion pieces. Students studied what makes a strong opinion and how opinions can be used to persuade when they are supported by facts. Our big writing piece was focused on giving our opinion on our favorite restaurants. Students wrote a restaurant review that included the location of the restaurant, what the restaurant looks like, details on the food, and why the restaurant is special to them. The writing pieces turned out great!

Some students decided to put in a little extra work and write a second copy of their review to be mailed to the restaurant. We have heard back from two restaurant including China Garden and Denny's. The students had a lot of fun with this piece and our mouths were watering during writing!

China Buffet is an oustanding restaurant.




You should go to Red Robin.
