You need to write at least 4 sentences to get a target.  If you write more than 6 sentences you get a + plus.  If you write fewer than 4 sentences, you do not pass.  You get a -.  This is a “quad cluster”.  You must choose the word that doesn’t belong with the other three.  Explain how the three words are similar and how the fourth word is different.

YOU MUST GRADE YOUR WRITING.  At the end of your writing assignment, skip a line and write the word-  MINUS if you write fewer than 4 sentences.  TARGET if you write 4-6 sentences and PLUS if you write 7 or more.  YOU MUST GRADE YOURSELF!!!!!
