 In this series of 3 brief videos\, our main purp
 ose is to illustrate a practical process for incorporating writing into sc
 ience and social studies classrooms\, in purposeful ways.
 We define “p
 urposeful” as writing that helps students learn and communicate content 
 understanding.
 Writing is simply a method we use to teach and assess con
 tent.
 Step 1: Lay a foundation: Build students’ understanding of the v
 ocabulary for informational writing\, which is a common type of writing in
  science and social studies. (Video 1)
 Step 2: Prioritize writing on sta
 ndards that require higher-order\, critical thinking. (We will explore exa
 mples). Build brief writing questions aligned to these. (Video 2)
 Step 3
 : Guide students through some of these writing questions so that they are 
 more successful when they respond independently. (Video 3)
