5 Paragraph Essay Freebie

Many learners struggle to master the five paragraph essay.  When I work with students on an individualized basis, I'm continually teaching this concept.  As a result, I created a free Prezi for my students and other professionals, parents and teachers that want to help students master the formula behind writing a 5 paragraph essay.  Students can also use this as a reference each time they are assigned a new essay.  In addition, because many teachers have their own variations or tweak to the 5 paragraph essay, students can show the Prezi to the teachers and make any needed alterations.

I'd love to hear your thoughts!!

Getting a school to recognize, test, and then accommodate your child with dyslexia can be an arduous and frustrating task. Although public school systems can accommodate the individual needs of our struggling students, many administrators don’t like to tap into the general education coffers for a single student. As a result, parents often have to rally and wrestle to obtain reasonable accommodations for their children with dyslexia and other disabilities that impact learning.
