5th grade students at Northside Elementary participated in a 2-day writing workshop. Natalie Gwosdz, the campus's Instructional Coach, and their Reading Language Arts teachers taught two different written-response activities to help students become stronger writers and prepare for STAAR. The students wrote, shared their responses, and practiced editing skills. Northside students are writers and are working hard!
