FUNctional Writing Lesson: Notes & Cards for Valentine’s Day (2/11/10)

What are you teaching for Valentine’s Day? In this week’s lesson and video, Schoolwide Educational Director Rory Cohen shows us how functional writing can be incorporated into notes and cards such as valentines to create practical, real-world compositions.

Learn how to:

  • Create a fun exercise while integrating practical writing techniques;
  • Explore how a writer communicates with different forms of functional writing; and
  • Elicit a list for a chart of occasions for writing cards, including Valentine’s Day.
