Standard 5 WRITING: Applications (Different Types of Writing and Their Characteristics) At Grade 7, students continue to write narrative (story), expository (informational), persuasive, and descriptive texts (of at least 500 to 700 words).

Writing demonstrates an awareness of the audience (intended reader) and purpose for writing. In addition to producing the different writing forms introduced in earlier grades, such as letters, Grade 7 students use the writing strategies outlined in Standard 4 Writing Process to: 7.5.1 Write biographical or autobiographical narratives (stories) that: develop a standard plot line including a beginning, conflict, rising action, climax, and denouement (resolution) and point of view.
