Honors courses also pay particular attention to 21 st Century Skills (critical thinking and reasoning, information literacy, collaboration, and self-direction and invention) as applied to all priority and supporting standards. Writing Priority versus Writing Focus. The priority standards in writing for grades 6-12 are W.4 (clear and coherent writing), W.5 (writing process planning, revising, editing, rewriting), and W.9 (drawing evidence from literary and informational texts). The writing focus for each unit highlights the priority standards through multiple types of writing, narrative (W.3), informational/explanatory (W.2), argument (W.1, and the research process (W.7) as identified in the writing standards.
