IDEAS
Students generate ideas for good writing topics. After
brainstorming for initial ideas, students learn to focus on a
specific topic that is manageable. Then they practice developing
these ideas and adding details to enrich their writing.

WORD CHOICE
Students will learn how to choose words for their topic.
They will see the importance of choosing the correct words,
as well as precise and interesting language, to help their
readers understand exactly what they are saying.

SENTENCE FLUENCY
Students use various sentence types, lengths, and beginnings to
make writing more interesting. Students see how good writing
should flow along, with a variety of sentences.

ORGANIZATION
The internal structure of writing is very important. It gives
a framework around which students can build their topic.
A good opening, an appropriate closing, and everything in
between should be in a logical order.

VOICE
It is important for students to speak to the intended audience.
Conveying the appropriate tone and mood allows students to
further add their unique style to their work.
