Comm 11/12 Rick Hansen structure

“Rick Hansen: Man in Motion”
Professional writing- look at structure

options for organization: TIME, SPACE, IMPORTANCE

-organized by TIME, chronological – in order of time, time flows only one way- from past to present

PLAYING WITH TIME – movie Titanic- uses same narrative structure

novel by Madeleine Thien, plays with time, different setting

-para 1- begins at end of tour, 
end of para 1 refers to beginning 2years
-para 2, then goes back to 1974

-history, organized by TIME
- then focus of essay – Man in Motion
-para 3,4 physical training, athletic success
-para 5 talk about prep for Man in Motion Tour
-para 6 begin tour
-anecdotes from tour, challenges, successes
-para 12 building momentum in Canada
-para 17 culminate
-para 18 conclusion , end with inspiring quotation

very well-structured piece of writing
decided on a frame, used that frame
