Writing paragraphs 1.ppt
1) Many students struggle with writing, with only about 20% of students writing at a proficient level or higher based on national assessments. Writing is time-consuming for both students and teachers, which is why it is rarely assigned in full.
2) To address these issues, experts recommend doubling the time students spend writing each day, including more journaling and writing across subjects. Teachers should focus on developing students' ideas as they write rather than perfect handwriting or grammar.
3) Effective ways to teach paragraph writing include using a hamburger model to structure ideas, having students write "lost and found" ads to describe missing mittens, and incorporating more journaling into daily routines.
Exams tips
To perform better on exams, focus fully on your paper and avoid distractions. Maintain clear and neat handwriting, as good handwriting can earn extra marks. When writing answers, focus on quality over quantity and avoid grammatical mistakes. Illustrate answers with diagrams when possible, and use paragraphing, highlighting, and a point-wise structure for longer answers. Balance time spent on different questions and check your work before submitting to catch any errors. Proper time allocation and preparation are essential for maximizing exam scores.

If I’m working with equipment, where are the parts I need to use? What materials, equipment, and tools do I need? Once I’m ready to start, what – exactly – do I do? If something isn’t working correctly, how do I fix it?
- 4. Superstructure for Instructions Introduction Description of Equipment List of Materials and Equipment Needed Directions Troubleshooting
- 5. Preparing Instructions Usability objective is obvious – to enable readers to perform a procedure Persuasive objective – to read the instructions at all
- 6. Conducting Research Depends on how well you know the subject For the assignment, show some outside research from another credible source or diagrams.
- 7. Planning Organize directions hierarchically List all the steps in the process Group together some steps if the instructions are long Graphics can be extremely effective Page design will help readers find their place. Consider subheadings, for instance. Color can help in some limited instances.
- 8. Drafting and Revising Write clearly and succinctly Use as few words as possible. When revising, consider showing someone else your draft.
- 9. Crafting - Introduction As short as possible Most don’t need one For this assignment, give a little context “This manual tells you how to…” Purpose Intended Audience Scope Conventions used in the manual “Left and right refer to a user facing the dashboard.”

- 16. Crafting - Directions Use many graphics Show where objects are How to perform steps What should result
- 17. Crafting - Directions Present Branching Steps Clearly If PB & J is fresh, continue to step 4 If PB & J is moldy, throw it out and acquire new PB & J
- 18. Crafting - Directions Explain what to do in case of a mistake or unexpected result Acquire PB & J Note: If PB & J is on fire, do not acquire. Call 911.
- 19. Troubleshooting Answers to the various problem Table Format helps Error Cause Remedy My PB&J is not tasty You may not like it. Don’t eat it. My PB&J is outside You closed the bread Do it right. the bread. wrong.
