WRITING IN MATH!!! TRUE UNDERSTANDING HAPPENS WHEN ONE CAN EXPLAIN A CONCEPT TO ANOTHER!!!!

Writing Guidelines (According to Matkovich) Start from Day 1 Start from Day 1 It will be a journey!!! It will be a journey!!! Model– Model– Model (show examples good and bad) Model– Model– Model (show examples good and bad) Encourage the use of Vocabulary Words in writing!!
