1 “How to read like a writer”
By Mike Bunn LA 5/6 Group Work & Analysis

2 Group Assignment: TABLES
Please write the sections assigned to your table in your NOTES: Table 1: Introduction & #1 (pgs ) Table 2: # 2 & 3 (pgs ) Table 3: # 4-7 (pgs ) Table 4: # 8 & 9 (pgs ) Then, listen for how to determine the #’ed sections. I am running through the section titles. Write a note if you need to, otherwise see the pages listed above.

3 Beginning Instructions
STEP 1 All by your lonesome self, take a moment to start with the LAST PAGE to the FIRST PAGE, yes-backward, to HOVER and DISCOVER words you do NOT know as of yet. Write a list in the notes we began. What is unfamiliar? Scary? Intimidating? Too sophisticated?

4 Intermediate (Group) Instructions
STEP 2 As a group, decide HOW you will read the sections that you have been assigned. (1 reader aloud, all silent, taking turns, etc.) STEP 3 Read your entire section first. STEP 4 Once reading is complete, develop a short summary of what you have read as a group. 1 sheet, MLA, all names Be concise. Include ONLY main points. No citations, instead put this in your own words.

5 Advanced (Group) Instructions
STEP 5 Using your SOAPST(one) handout, as a guide, write up the (P)urpose and (T)one. You should have at least 3-4 sentences for each of these boxes. STEP 6 Identify the MODE(s) of DISCOURSE USED in your sections. For example, In section #3 Bunn used a narrative. STEP 7 Then, provide the citation that best illustrates the mode. For example, He describes his experience reading books “with [a] tiny flashlight…in the dim light of the theatre…” (71). You may need to include multiple citations to illustrate the mode. This is GOOD practice for writing support for a claim!!
