Presentation transcript:

ORGANIZE YOUR WRITING 1. START EACH PARAGRAPH WITH THE TOPIC “Many people don’t want to travel because they are afraid of people and places that are different” ( This paragraph MUST be about ‘afraid of different places and people’)

ORGANIZE YOUR WRITING 1. EXPLAIN THE TOPIC USING DETAIL SENTENCES “For example, in the USA only 10% of the people have a passport! That means they never leave the States. People are more comfortable with what they know, so many people don’t want to venture out into the “Great Road” of the world; they probably are worried they will get “swept away” by foreign people and places. They must find this scary and intimidating.” ( All these sentences MUST have connection to ‘afraid of different people and places’ topic)

ORGANIZE YOUR WRITING 1. END EACH PARAGRAPH BY CONCLUDING THE TOPIC “If only people would try visiting other places, they would see that people are really similar and friendly. People really should go out on the “Great Road” of travel” ( This paragraph WRAPS UP the topic ‘afraid of different places and people’)
