Wednesday, January 14 Composition 4.5 Study Island! Literary Analysis and Composition

Composition 4.5 What are our lesson objectives? What will I be able to do by the end of this lesson? I will be able to: Develop details with descriptive language. Brainstorm details on a descriptive topic. Use feedback from others to plan, draft, or revise writing. Choose a topic for a descriptive essay.

Determine purpose and audience for a descriptive essay. Determine a pattern of organization. Identify and use the steps in the writing process: prewriting, writing, and revising.

Keywords and Pronunciation chronological order : organizational pattern in which details are arranged in the order they occur pattern of organization : the order in which details are arranged sensory detail : descriptive detail that appeals to any of the senses—sight, hearing, touch, smell, or taste spatial order : organizational pattern in which details are arranged according to location

Let’s Critique a Descriptive Essay "The Roller Coaster" Screams and shouts could be heard in the distance as the line droned on in the summer heat. We clambered into the seat and sat down. The restraining bar locked over my shoulders as I buckled my seatbelt. The cars rolled down toward the incline, leading to the first large drop. When I heard the clickety-clack of the rivets as we made our ascent, a feeling of nervousness and extreme excitement swept over me. Thousands of thoughts raced through my mind. What will the ride be like? Will I like it?

I had no more time to think as we slowly rose over the massive peak. While we crept along, I could see the steep plunge downward. Then, all of a sudden, we sped down the slope with our hair pulled back by the wind. As we slid down, I felt weightless, but when we reached the bottom, it felt as if I weighed tons. We raced from one drop to another, turning and lurching, screaming all the way. Then, as if it all had been a dream, the cars jolted to a stop. Forced to get out, I found myself slumped in the seat. As I walked away, shaken and relieved, I exclaimed, "Let's go again!"

Let’s Ask Ourselves a Few Questions 1. What is the purpose of this writing? 2. Can you tell who the audience for the writing will be? Why or why not? 3. Is there a clear topic for the essay? What makes the topic clear or unclear?

4. What will be in the body of the essay? Should the writer add more information? If so, what should the writer add? 5. Does it seem like the writer will achieve the purpose of the essay and properly the audience? Why or why not? 6. What can the writer do to make the writing plan better or clearer?
