This document provides guidance on different types of writing: expository, presentation, and persuasive. For expository writing, it advises choosing an interesting topic, finding facts from reliable sources, developing a thesis statement, and creating an outline. For presentations, it recommends determining two to three main points, starting with an attention-grabbing statement, making eye contact, and practicing. Regarding persuasive writing, the steps are to state your opinion as a clear claim, provide well-arranged reasons, and back them up with facts, ending with an interesting conclusion.
