Pre Writing

In class we are taking a close look at the 'Writing Process' and what we do at each stage. At the moment we are looking at the 'pre-writing' stage and what we do. Today we have had some good debate over the order of things we need to know before we can write. Do we need to know who the audience is before we write or do we need to know the purpose? Some interesting points of views were shared by several students and we still couldn't come to an agreement! But that is what makes learning fun, what works for one, might not work for another.

Next we are looking at planning - and different planning tools we can use to make drafting that much easier. Here is a link to a site you ALL need to bookmark as it has some fantastic interactive planners on, that when used correctly, will make drafting easy.

Stay tuned as we continue to make our way through the writing process.
