Our mini-grant offers a solution to a problem we voiced in our discussions at the

last Institute: teaching the informational essay for the TASC exam is much more

of a challenge for us than teaching the argumentative essay. We identified two

reasons for this:

• Lack of practice essays. Most of the testing preparation books focus more

on the argumentative essay.

• Lack of a “one size fits all” template or outline for the essays. In our

experience, this essay cannot be easily formatted in a pro/con/my opinion

organizational structure like the argumentative style. It depends on a close

reading of the prompt to determine what the writer’s “job” is. This job

differs from prompt to prompt.

We created a bank of 8 text-based, practice informational essays to use in the HSE

classroom on the following topics:

The Harms of Television Global Warming

The Great Depression Concerns Regarding Green Energy

Fixed vs. Growth Mindset Dangers of Supplements and Miracle Cures

The Heroin Epidemic Civil Rights Movements: Then and Now

In addition to these 8 essays you will find corresponding extension activities which

include the following:

• Embedded skills-based activities to reinforce the teaching of grammar,

mechanics, and usage. We focused on TASC identified high-medium

emphasis writing skills like sentence combining, items in a series,

parallelism and the use of the colon and semi-colon.

• Activities to reinforce important reading skills such as building vocabulary

and reading visual information, and writing skills such as paraphrasing.

• Graphic organizers and templates that we created with our students. These

assist in reading with purpose and planning the essay.

This is a work in progress, one that we plan to build upon, edit, and change based

on feedback from colleagues and students.

2b2t

in a place once known as north america, now known as panem, is a very rich city surrounded by twelve districts. every year because this very rich city, known as the capitol, is so rich and likes to think they control all the districts - which they do - there is something known as the hunger games! this is where two children, one boy and one girl from each district from the ages of twelve to eighteen, have to leave their families and compete in the hunger games, a live event that is aired on tv's all over panem. when katniss everdeen, aged sixteen from district 12, has to volunteer to take the place of her twelve-year-old sister prim after prim's name is called forth to become the 23rd member to compete in the 74th hunger games, she promises to prim that she will win! katniss doesn't believe she's coming out alive - but she's not going down without a fight.

because district 12 is so poor, katniss has been close to death many times from starvation but she's made it through it. but this is a different kind of close to death; this katniss doesn't know if she can survive.

she doesn't want to hurt, or kill anyone but when it comes down to it katniss' instinct is to survive. but when she starts to have confusing feelings about the boy from her district who is also her fellow contender, things get worse, and then she teams up with the girl from district 11 and only one person can survive. but who will it be? will her feelings get the better of her? will she let someone else win so they don't have to die? if katniss is going to win she's going to have to be brutal. she's going to have to kill!
