Writing Fix: Requesting a Task Force to Prevent Child Endangerment

Curated by ACT

In this lesson, Roald Dahl's book The Witches is used as a mentor text. Students will attempt to save themselves and the other children. Students will analyze real population statistics from world-wide and details from the story to understand the possible impacts of the witches in the story. Then students will write a persuasive letter to the President to convince him that a task force needs to be developed to study the problem of witches in the United States. [Requires Adobe Reader.]
