WHY THIS LESSON?
This extensive course is designed to help middle school and even high school students with strong writing skills take those skills to the next level.
This packet shows students how to write a good expository composition: from scratch and under time pressure.
This skill helps students achieve mastery on the standardized tests as well as high school classes and college-entrance compositions.
For college-bound students, improving their expository writing skills is worth the time and effort. Expository writing prompts are the go-to writing assignments for junior and senior-level AP tests, the ACT, many End-of-Course high school Literature courses, and many state assessments.
For those students who aspire to go to college, becoming better at expository writing opens up more opportunities.
The packet includes:
- Step-by-step suggestions on how to brainstorm, organize and write
- A blank template page that can be adapted and used for any expository topic
- A sample expository topic (often called a prompt), from a prior released STAAR test
- A page of brainstorming ideas for that topic, and suggestions on how to choose most effective ideas
- A pre-writing page, using the template already given, on that specific topic
- A sample essay on that topic, written from the pre-writing page
- A second sample expository topic (often called a prompt), from a prior released STAAR test
- A page of brainstorming ideas for that second topic, and suggestions on how to choose the most effective ideas.
Two pre-writing pages and two sample essays on that second topic.
