 In this series of 3 brief videos\, our main purpos
 e is to illustrate a practical process for incorporating writing into scie
 nce and social studies classrooms\, in purposeful ways.
 We define “pur
 poseful” as writing that helps students learn and communicate content un
 derstanding.
 Writing is simply a method we use to teach and assess conte
 nt. 
 Step 1: Lay a foundation: Build students’ understanding of the vo
 cabulary for informational writing\, which is a common type of writing in 
 science and social studies. (Video 1)
 Step 2: Prioritize writing on stan
 dards that require higher-order\, critical thinking. (We will explore exam
 ples). Build brief writing questions aligned to these. (Video 2)
 Step 3:
  Guide students through these writing questions so that they are ultimatel
 y more successful when they respond independently. (Video 3)
