Students will demonstrate this skill by being able to express in writing and discussion how a writers background, historical and social context, purpose and audience impact the form and content. 3. (New!) Students will demonstrate in their writing that they are making decisions about their own content, form, and diction appropriate to a variety of writing situations. 4. Students will understand that reading and writing are processes and will begin to develop effective strategies for analyzing, composing, and organizing thoughts.

In addition, students will revise drafts by sharing through peer review, visiting the writing center, and attending critical literacy lab workshops. 5. Students will read and analyze a variety of texts and write responses that reflect, explain, or analyze those texts. 6.
