Feb 19, 2013 Step up to Writing

Homework: Color coding paragraph worksheet

Today in class we finished up our organizing game by organizing our lists of topics and details into a step up to writing outline format.  Everyone did a FANTASTIC job with this!  It really helped us visualize what a completed outline will look like.

After we finished the organization game we went through how we can get from an outline to a written paragraph.  We took a completed outline and worked from  the top down.  We started with our topic sentence (green), made a thesis with our yellows, then we went through our outline, alternating between our yellow key topics and red details.

For homework finish color-coding the worksheets given to you at the end of class.
