Teaching the process Modelinghow to Prepare, Organize, and Write using a think sheet Lesson 3. Prompting students to plan and write a first draft together Lesson 4. Modeling Edit using an editing think sheet Prompted practice using flawed examples Partner editing

Individually selected topics Lesson 8. Individually selected topics (continued) Lesson 9. Individually selected topics (continued)

  22. Teaching the Writing Process Extending the Application Critical Questions: How can fact paragraphs be extended to writing expository/informational reports? What are the critical features of an expository report, a descriptive paragraph, and a personal narrative. What are the text structures for imaginative stories and persuasive essays? How does the method of teaching critical features differ for imaginative stories than for other modes of writing?

  23. Expository/Informational Reports Bird by Bird Starting with short reports Writing longer reports Acknowledgement: Based on ideas and materials from Anita Archer

  24. Short Reports Prerequisite skill: Writing a fact paragraph. A. Start by examining the product. Lesson 1. Concept instruction a. Introduce the product by talking about its purpose: A short report explains or gives information about a specific topic using facts, details, and examples. Present a short but well-written example. Read together and point out critical features.

  25. Short Reports

  26. Short Reports c. List critical features: • A short report has several paragraphs. • It tells about one specific topic. • The first paragraph tells what it is or what it does. • It answers questions the reader might have about the topic. • It has facts, details and examples that make it easy to understand.

  27. Short Reports d. Examine a second example. Read the example together, discussing its features as you read. : • Does it have several paragraphs? • Does it tell about one specific topic? • Does the first paragraph tells what it is or what it does? • Does it answer questions the reader might have about the topic? • Does it have facts, details and examples that make it easy to understand?

  28. Short Reports B. Continue by teaching the process. Lesson 2. Review of the process and demonstration of planning a. Review critical features. b. Review the process (POWER): Prepare, Organize, Write, Edit, Rewrite. Briefly describe each step. c. Explain and model the Prepare part of the process while students observe.

  30. Prepare 2. Brainstorm questions concerning your topic. Example:traffic jams What are traffic jams? What causes traffic jams? How can traffic jams be prevented?

  31. PRACTICE ACTIVITY With your partner, think of another possible topic for an informational report. Make it specific. Then think of 3-4 possible questions reflecting what the reader may want to know about the topic.
