​  **__Welcome to Core 6A's Wonderful Wiki!__**

Mrs. Hosler's wikispace is up and running...finally! Together we will learn all about the wonderful world of wikis! Writing and responding on the wiki will really help improve your writing stamina. My goal is to have us all grow as a blossoming community of writers and readers. __Tips on using the wiki properly:__ 1. Be sure to write and save all your writing as a "word" document onto your flashdrive and upload it onto the wiki. Please do this so you do not lose your valuable work. It might be difficult to find in cyberspace. 2. When you respond to someone's writing, please do so respectfully. Treat others like you want to be treated. 3. Sign all your entries with your first name and last initial (SandraH) 4. Be PR2 when using the wiki--positive, responsible, and respectful.  __The following BIG IDEAS and Guiding Questions will be our focus throughout the year:__ ​ ​ __BIG IDEAS__ __Guiding Questions__
 * There is a difference between LIVING and exisiting.
 * When we read and write we can better understand ourselves and learn life lessons from people who have had different life experiences than us.
 * Good readers "talk to the text" to ask questions, make connections, give opinions and take notice of the author's craft.
 * What are your choices when bad things happen to you?
 * How does someone's culture affect or change the choices they make in life?
 * What makes a family? What does a family look like? Do we need a family or can we go it alone?
 * How is fear used to control others?
