Strategies
Using the writing prompt and the class-reviewed rubric, students will draft an essay.
While the focus is on the development of ideas and organization, students need to
be aware of the conventions of spelling, capitalization, good sentence structure, and
punctuation as they write.

In The Judgment of Paris, Paris awards the golden apple, signifying the highest
standards of beauty, to Aphrodite. What was his motivation? Given the three
choices by the goddesses: power, honor and respect, or the love of the most
beautiful person in the world, which would you select? Explain your answer. Use
evidence from the text to support your opinion about Paris, and to justify your own
motivations.

1. Students will complete an outline for their essay using the Outline Pro App.
2. Students will begin drafting their essay using the Werdsmith app (portable
writing studio)
3. Students will revise and edit their draft. Students are required to use the app
Dictionary.com Dictionary & Thesaurus to replace at least 5 words with
appropriate synonyms.
4. After proofreading, students will make corrections to their draft and submit
the final draft electronically to the Dropbox on the teacher web page.
