  1. FL Writes Scoring…Want a higher score? -You can score a 1 or 2 if you have no organization, yet write on the topic -You can jump from a 2 to 3, if you have organization (clear sense of a beginning, middle, and end) -You can jump from a 3 to 4 if you have only ONE ELABORATION. -Multiple elaborations and precise word choice score 5’s and 6’s

  2. What are we going to focus on to make your scores higher??? • ELABORATING (VOICE) 2. ORGANIZATION 3. WORD CHOICE

  3. What is an ELABORATION? • Think of an ELABORATION as a personal experience. • You are going to expand or tell a story about a point you are making in your writing. • A good way to add an elaboration here and there is to use TRANSITIONAL FRAMES (see your handout). • These give your writing VOICE and put a reader inside the writing.
