Today we wrote the Writing process worksheet. I chose the title called ''A death in the family can teach a person a great deal about life.'' I wrote about my grandfather who died 5 years ago because he got the lung cancer. It makes every smokers in my family realized this is a very serious problem if they keep on doing that. So a lot of members in my family has changed this bad habit because they do not want to end up like this way!!

The Writing Process Worksheet

Today we basically went over the whole Writing Process. In our activity, we have to interpret the whole thing by writing whatever we need to know about the subject. We also had to go over the three different stages. Stage one is Freewriting, Brainstorming, Clustering and Note-taking.
Stage Two is when you organize your ideas and write a topic or thesis sentence. Stage Three is when you write your draft. In this stage, you have to edit and revise your draft by using CLUESS and COPS. After that, you keep on writing drafts until you feel like it's perfect, then you can finish your essay.

03/07/11 session

Today's session was okay. We all read through Chapter 6-Writing the Essay and after the reading, we all started with our Writing Process Worksheet. Our task was to basically choose one topic and follow the example given by Leah's outline, the usages of stages one and two, etc. We do not neccessarily have to focus on all the strategies, but at least we get the whole process of writing an essay. Some of us shared our work with the class and so forth, the topics were interesting. I will see you next class everyone.

Lab Session Mar 07, 2011

Today's lab meeting we continued on the Student Demonstration of All Stages of the Writing Process. We went over Leah's essays using the Writing Process in detailed from Stage one to Stage three. Leah's final draft of her essay turned out really good. Then we just did one exercise completing the writing process worksheet and pick one out of the ten topics followed. The topic i chose was the the first one The Date was a successful day although i did not want to share. I just wrote about October 1, 2007 being a successful day because it's the day i gave birth to my daughter. Great class session today!

Demonstrating All Stages of the Writing Process 03/17/2011

Today we have continued our lesson in demonstrating All the Stages of the Writing Process in which we discussed (read) about the complete use of each of the three stages-- Exploring, Organizing, and Writing. Relatively, we were assigned to expound upon the lesson by displaying the techniques we have learned through the Writing Process Worksheet in which we selected a topic to explore, organize, and write about.


See you guys on March 23! And remember we have a test on that day.

In today's lab session we viewed over chapter 6,"Writing the Essay". We read over the Writing Worksheet and the process that Leah did in order to write a good essay that her readers could clearly understand what her topic is. There were three stages that were used: Stage 1-Explore, Stage 2-Organize, and Stage 3-Write. We were assigned to do an exercise using the Writing Process Worksheet and explain it. The thesis I wrote about was "The way I keep my room is a reflection of the way I think". Which by the way is so true in my experience. This worksheet is a very useful tool in preparation of writing out essays. After, we discovered that Donna is a singer and she has a CD out!! I am going to so get the disk and have her sign it!
