Persuasive Writing = Donated Books!

 

Shelfari: Book reviews on your book blog

Mrs. Molly Guikema, one of our HHS teachers, designed a writing project with a community purpose for her English II-A students.  At the conclusion of their unit of study related to characteristics of an American hero, Mrs. Guikema asked her English students to write a persuasive letter to children’s book publishers.  The intent of the letter to solicit book donations to help build school library collections for their local elementary schools. Five of the students chose to donate the books they received to our school library.  

Many thanks to: Jon Igo, Britney Bekken, Alex Slager, Christy Bectel, Nicole Huitsing…and Mrs. Guikema! You can view the donate books on our shelf above…and in our school library!
