Greetings Supertigers:
It is a pleasure for us to welcome you to our Tiger Times Workshop Site.
Here, you will find the best thinking, reasoning, reading and writing of the students of MacGregor Elementary in the Central Region of Houston ISD.
Our student talents are in depth and diverse. Our students represent Magnet, Gifted and Talented, Bilingual/ESL and a range of various ethnic and cultural groups.
The topics for publication are listed in the Times Index, available here:
In our publication, we strive to demonstrate the key stages in best writing practices: 1) brainstorming (making mind maps and graphic organizers); 2) ideas; 3) voice and word choice; 4) sentence fluency; 5) conventions; 6) organization; and 7) presentation.
Student writing is therefore transparent, in that it shows these stages of the writing process. Editors share with readers the graphic organizers that formed the underlying structure of their work; they also share the original sequencing of their ideas, in an effort to model how good writing gets produced.
