The thinking organizers listed below can be helpful for you as you construct your responses to each prompt. They provide sentence starters and tables to help you organize your response. For the actual commentary submission, you will need to write your responses in paragraph form. Do not copy and paste the tables from the thinking organizers into your actual commentaries. These thinking organizers are developed to help you organize your responses initially.
The Chalk and Wire Tip handout provides screen shots of each page in Chalk and Wire as well as some tips and suggestions from the handbooks.
As always, please read and refer back to your handbooks. These resources are guides to assist you.
Chalk and Wire Tip Handouts: This link will take you to a folder that contains screenshots of Chalk and Wire pages as well as some key information taken from the handouts. They show you what each section in Chalk and Wire looks like. Please do not edit these documents.
