ENGLISH FOR ACADEMIC PURPOSES

Writer’s Tip

When you write an outline, try to make the main points (A, B, C, and so on) the
same-all adjectives, all nouns, all verb phrases, or all sentences.

PRACTICE 7 Now you try it. Make an outline from the Prewriting Activity: Clustering that you
Outlining did at the beginning of the lesson (pages 34-36). Use the following form for your
outline.

Step 1 Look at your final cluster of circles. Mark ideas that seem useful for this

topic, and cross out ideas that don't seem useful. Try to find three main

points. Label them A, B, C.

Step 2 Write a topic sentence and a concluding sentence.

Title: ___________________________________

_______________________________________________________
Topic Sentence

A. ____________________________________________________
First main Point
B. ____________________________________________________
Second Main Point
Third main Point C. ____________________________________________________

_______________________________________________________
Concluding Sentence

Try It Out! Write a paragraph from the outline you wrote in Practice 7. Use the model
paragraph on page 37 as a guide. (You have already completed Step 1 in the
writing process, Prewriting.)

Step 2 Write the first draft.
• Write ROUGH DRAFf at the top of your paper.

• Follow your outline.
• Add details that show when each characteristic or ability is used or
why it is important. Write two or three sentences for each main point.
• Introduce each main point with a listing-order transition signal.

Step 3 Edit the first draft.
• Edit your paragraph with a partner as you have done in Lesson 1. Use
Reader's Response 2A and Writer's Self-Check 2A on pages 194and
195.
