Today’s agenda:
1. Test#5 on “Roses Sing on New Snow”
Tomorrow- begin sentence combining exercises
Sentence combining will be a big step forward in deepening our facility with writing and understanding sentence.
Today – write our literary paragraph
- focus on the story
- not personal paragraph, not narrative writing
-no “I’, no first person
REMEMBER YOUR PROCESS!
Plan first.
Prewriting
1. Read the question. Understand the question.
2. Brainstorm a few ideas. 3 points is ideal.
3. Organize. Put them in an order.
Writing
4. Write sentences (150-200 words)
Grabber (optional)
Topic sentence
Supporting sentences
Concluding sentence
5. Proofread and edit.
Check your sentences. Using a grammar-checker is cheating me and yourself.
6. Submit on time. No lates.
Test#5
Write an organized paragraph of 150-200 words on the following topic.
Email it to me by 12:09.
“What are some reasons Maylin became well-known in her community?”
