I teach a weekly online class to virtual students in my school, focusing on 5th grade Writing Strategies. This PowerPoint is one of the lessons that I designed for the class. It is aligned to CA standards for fifth grade, and also aligned to the K12 curriculum so that students can get guided instruction on one of their lessons and be able to mark it off at the end.
The English language is filled with words that sound the same (homophones), but have different spellings and meanings. This powerpoint has a guessing game, writing activity, and speaking activity.

ENG 115 ASSIGNMENT 1 PERSONAL ESSAY DRAFT Due W.docxgidmanmary
ENG 115
ASSIGNMENT 1: PERSONAL ESSAY DRAFT
Due Week 3 and worth 80 points
You have a wealth of experiences, knowledge, and opinions that make you who you are. For your first assignment, you will shar e
your opinions, experiences, and stories to write a personal essay.
What is a personal essay? It’s one of many types of formal essays. All formal essays maintain the same basic structure: Introduction
with a thesis statement, supporting paragraphs, and conclusion. The personal essay is a narrative in which the author writes about
an experience that was highly meaningful (usually a lesson was learned). For this assignment, choose a topic and discuss three
reasons why the topic is important to you. The topic choices are presented in your WebText. To make this a personal essay, it’s
important to include one or more stories from your life that demonstrate why your selected topic is meaningful to you.
Important note: Personal Essays DO NOT incorporate any type of research from the WebText or outside sources. If you have written
a Personal Essay in a previous course, please reach out to your professor to see if you can re-use it. You are not permitted to use ANY
paper from an unrelated current or past course.
INSTRUCTIONS:
You are required to use your WebText to draft your essay in the templates!
Compose a two (2) page paper in which you do the following:
A. Structure Your Paper: Story, Introduction, Supporting/Body, Conclusion
1. Incorporate a story from your life into one or more of the following sections: introduction, supporting/body
paragraph(s), or conclusion.
a. Is your personal story relevant to your topic?
b. Is your personal story structured effectively, with a clear progression of events?
c. Is your language descriptive and precise?
d. Do you include an appropriate level of detail in your story – just enough to help the reader understand
your main points?
2. Write an introduction paragraph, which includes your thesis statement. It is suggested that this paragraph contain
5-7 sentences.
a. Does your introduction include an attention grabber or hook, and/or some background information on
the topic?
b. If you are using a personal story in your introduction, is it relevant to your topic?
c. Does your thesis statement include three distinct and personal reasons why the topic is meaningful to
you?
d. Is your thesis statement clear and concise?
e. Does your introduction provide a preview of the rest of your essay?
3. Write a supporting/body paragraph for each of the three (3) points/reasons from your thesis statement. It is
suggested that each paragraph contain 5-7 sentences.

experiences?
b. If you are using a personal story in a body paragraph, is it relevant to your topic?
4. Write a conclusion paragraph. It is suggested that this paragraph contain 5-7 sentences?

Writing the Rough DraftThe purpose of this assignment is three-f.docxambersalomon88660
Writing the Rough Draft
The purpose of this assignment is three-fold.
1. First, almost every piece of writing that you complete at the college level will involve arguing for a specific viewpoint. Even essays that simply are informative are trying to convince the reader of the validity of the information. This essay will allow you to demonstrate that you understand how to compose an effective piece of persuasive writing.
2. Second, you will be required to write many research papers as you complete your academic career. This essay allows you to demonstrate that you understand how to effectively cite the information you gather from completing the research assignments that led up to writing this essay.
3. Finally, this essay gives you the chance to discuss something you feel is important, either for your own information or for the general population, and you get a guaranteed audience.
General Guidelines for Writing the Essay & Tips for Putting it Together
· Write a 6-8 page essay that discusses your research topic. Begin with a catchy first sentence and interesting first paragraph that explains why you chose this topic and why someone should read about this topic. If you wrote a good story for your Research Proposal, that story can become the introduction for your research essay.
· The first paragraph or two should discuss the issue, problem, or topic that you researched. It should provide any background information that is necessary for the reader to understand the essay, and it should define any unfamiliar terms. Once you introduce the topic and provide background information, then you should state your thesis and the main reasons for your thesis. You will continually refer back to the thesis statement throughout the paper, AND everything in the paper will be connected to the thesis statement. This will help you keep your focus and go deep rather than broad into the information you gathered.
· After you have introduced your topic and stated the thesis, explain your first sub-claim (a sub-claim is a claim that supports the main idea or thesis). Remember this is an essay so you should have one main point that you are trying to communicate. You may have found out many, many things that you cannot include. What is the most important information? What's the best way to get that across to your readers?
· Each paragraph is also like a mini-essay. Each paragraph will have one main point or idea that you are developing. Then you will explain the main idea and give examples.
· Use transitions between paragraphs and ideas so that the essay flows.
· Be sure to introduce your quotes and paraphrased ideas. You might want to review the lesson from the Summary folder that discusses paraphrasing, summarizing, and quoting. Do NOT just drop a quote into your paper without an introduction and discussion.
· Be sure to use ethos, pathos, and logos to strengthen your argument and appeal to your audience. Follow this link for a discussion of the rhetorical appeals an.

· Assessment of essays
All essays returned to you will have a marking matrix attached with comments. These are meant to be constructive and are made to point out errors and areas where improvements could be made. The comments will explain why you got the mark you did. They are, therefore, usually ‘critical’. You should consider these comments carefully, and try to understand why they were made. If you do not see the point, or want further comment, please take this matter up with whoever marked your essay, preferably via the course coordinator A/Prof Lara Lamb.
The following points will be noted particularly in marking essays:
1. Relevance to the topic set.
2. Organisation and effectiveness of argument, and proper use of anthropological concepts and principles as outlined during the course of your reading.
3. Evidence of reading outside the set texts and accuracy of facts presented in the essay.
4. Originality – careful and critical thought about the topic, and use of illustrative material from independent reading and also, to some extent, from observation and experience.
5. Accuracy and clarity of written English, including grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Overall legibility and general setting out will be noted, especially of essay structure and referencing.
How to write an essay/presentation
Do not go over the word limit. This is set specifically to help you develop a sharp and concise style. Going under the word limit is preferable to ‘padding out’ your answer with vagaries or ‘waffle’ to reach the word limit.
Do not use value judgements of subjective terminology such as: primitive, backward, surprisingly advanced, superior or developed. You must be objective and indicate clearly what you mean by your terms.
Writing an essay is a gradual process; the final version of an essay should have been developed over several drafts, prepared as you explore the topic and compile notes from reading material.
You will usually need to do some reading before you can grasp the significance of the set topic. Begin with the suggested references in your book of reading and, as you read, keep a copy of the actual wording of the topic/question in view. Initial reading will enable you to:
1. Recognise the implications underlying the actual wording of the topic.
2. Understand key ideas and terms.
3. Identify all parts of the set question.
After some preliminary reading, when you feel you are beginning to grasp the topic, draft an outline plan for your essay. This will involve drawing up headings for each major section of your essay, writing a statement, in .

Editor's Notes
Set the timer for 60 seconds and let them have at it! There are 10 words in all: proofread, draft, dictionary, report, edit, write, essay, revise, conclusion, and thesaurus.
If you feel brave enough, let students raise their hand and use the mic to explain why they like that season.
Application share the graphic organizer. Comp 5.3.6 (writing to a persuasive prompt) uses the following prompt: “Some people think that television is bad for children. Should children be allowed to watch television? Write an essay in which you make an argument for either side of this question.” Discuss organizer, or go a step further and fill it out with student input and then do a quick save and file transfer it to them; they can use it to write their own essay later.
