The Task
Directions given to Students:
During reading, students learned about the differences between firsthand and secondhand accounts by sorting their attributes on a venn diagram. Then, they noticed how much more detailed and exciting a firsthand account can be by reading articles written in different accounts about the same event.
Later that day, they wrote the introductions to their informational articles. They learned about how introductions need to hook in their readers and how they can do that by making the reader feel like they are about to experience a sudden natural disaster. To get inspiration, they referred to firsthand accounts about their topics and then used the checklist to write their own introductions.
