Today my Pre-AP students participated in the Wordwright competition. The students were asked to answer high-level questions about a passage. The same questions are given to every grade level, which was hard for my sophomore students to comprehend, but they took to the challenge. My mentor teacher and I decided to take the assignment as a grade on a heavy curve to help boost student scores. The students worked diligently on the assignment and many of them ended up doing very well. Although they were anxious, they succeeded with some encouragement and hard work.
