IEW – Week 17
Put away white boards. Get out SRN and U.S. Student book.
How is your research coming so far? Last week, you should have read through and taken notes on your sources. Has everyone done this? If not, you seriously need to get that done quickly. You don’t want to have a ton of work to do at the end.
This week I want you to:
Look at the notes for theme #1.
Read through them all.
Stop and think: what bit of info would be interesting to start off with? What should you save for last? What notes are about the same kind of thing? Is there anything that isn’t really related to this theme?
Now, thoughtfully arrange the notes into the best order you can work out. This will be your Fused KWO.
(demonstrate on KWO page)
Next, brainstorm and use the thesaurus to get some good adjectives and –ly words and metaphors and similes. Add these into your KWO.
Write a rough draft of this paragraph. Keep the list of dress-ups handy so you can work them in as you write.
Older students, repeat this process on paragraph two.
The last theme is the most exciting theme, so spend some extra time on it. Make sure you brainstorm some good adjectives and –ly words and metaphors or similes. Write the rough draft.
Questions?
Grammar
Turn to page 77 in your SRN.
(Work through pages 77-79)
Please bring a copy of your rough draft next week. I would like to read over what you’ve done to that point.
