Issues - Not enough detail to support the topic - Not having a clear theme statement to let the reader know what your writing is about. It should clearly deal with the topic you have been assigned - Organizing your thoughts into a logical sequence - Structural problems: sentence structure, paragraphs, conventions - Lack of proofreading!!

Paragraphs Are your building block to any type of writing Is a group of sentences that develops a main idea The beginning of a new paragraph signals that a new idea will be introduced Good paragraphs have three main parts: 1. Main Idea: this can be clearly expressed in a topic sentence, which can appear anywhere in the paragraph.

Continue… 2. Supporting Sentences: explain the main idea of the paragraph. They use related details or examples to expand on the idea presented. 3. Closing Sentence: A good closing reinforces the main idea! It can add something new, and leave the reader with a manageable chunk of information to think about.

RAFTS What is this pre-writing strategy?
