CI345 RAFT Assignment - Emily Updegrove


Emily Updegrove
R.A.F.T. Assignment

(My content area is English, and I might use this R.A.F.T. assignment in a unit when my students were learning about persuasive writing).



Your role:

Your audience:

Your format:

Your topic:

Your strong verb:



Your assignment is to write a letter to the school principal from the perspective of a non-smoking student explaining why smoking in the school bathrooms should be more closely monitored

I actually worked with a classroom whose assignment it was to write a letter like this, which ended up being very useful, not only for the writing/learning process of persuasive writing, but was also well received by school administrators.
