We are writing this week.  Students are completing a lengthy worksheet (attached below) on "The Drummer Boy of Shiloh."  This worksheet will aid them in organizing an evidence chart using the software program PEGWRITING and then constructing an essay that responds to this prompt: Describe how Joby feels at the beginning of the story, what happens in the story to help him overcome his fear, and how he shows courage at the end of the story. Use evidence from all parts of the text to support your thinking.
