Active Citizenship Unit 3: Communication

Essential Question #1 – What are the skills I will need to be successful?
Essential Understanding: Successful high school students write for purpose.  They create a writing plan that organizes their ideas, ensures that they are supported with evidence, and allows the summary of these ideas into a concise thesis.  Their writing develops these ideas in an organized manner with an appropriate voice and the consistent use of English conventions.  When they communicate orally they do so with consistent eye contact, voice variation and confidence.
