- ideas, develop ideas, specific examples
3. Organize ideas, put them in an order- TIME, SPACE, IMPORTANCE
Look it up. Do some research on essay writing.
Why did you come to Vancouver?
interesting, not boring
- school UBC, other schools accepted me, UBC had a TA ship
- close to ocean, like to live by the ocean, grew up next to the ocean, live inland not happy
- lots of outdoor activities close by – cycling, skiing, snowboarding, camping, hiking
- close to the US border, close Washington, Oregon, California
- nice weather weather- not too cold in winter, just around 0, some snow, not freezing your face off, lots of rain- I like rain
plenty of sun in the summer
GRABBER (anecdote)- school UBC, other schools accepted me, UBC had a TA ship- best choice for me
THESIS STATEMENT- example
People in Canada call Vancouver “Lotusland” because it is such a special place in this country. Vancouver is a very special place to me, too, and I am very glad I chose this city as my home.
ORDER OF IMPORTANCE
1. BODY 1 close to ocean, like to live by the ocean, grew up next to the ocean, live inland not happy
2. BODY 2 close to the US border, close Washington, Oregon, California- go shopping, drive down the coast
3. BODY 3 lots of outdoor activities close by – cycling, skiing, snowboarding, camping, hiking
PREWRITING - I have a basic plan. I am ready to write.
Essay (300-350,400ww) little room for concluding sentences, grabbers for each body paragraphs
Now it is time to write sentences into a Rough Copy
MY ADVICE, MY EXPERIENCE: Planning first makes writing much easier. Many students get nervous about writing essays; one way to alleviate some of that stress is to have a little plan that you can follow.
HOMEWORK
Prewriting, make a plan- Why did you come to Vancouver?
Why did you come to Canada?
the tax question – very hard
Don’t write the essay. Just take 5-10 minutes and make a simple plan.
