Prewriting Techniques
1.
2. Prewriting is any activity that a write uses to
prepare for writing
3. Prewriting helps you:
◦ Organize your thoughts
◦ Begin your research
◦ Explore ideas that might have otherwise been
undiscovered
4. Prewriting is most useful as the first step of
the writing process.
However, it can be used any time you are
“stuck” in order to come up with new ideas
7. Begin with a blank piece of paper
Write your topic at the top
Write down everything you can about the
topic
Write anything; don’t worry about how crazy
your ideas are, grammar, or editing.
8. Look at your list and reconsider your topic
Eliminate any ideas that don’t relate to your
topic
Organize your remaining points
◦ Group similar ideas
◦ Try to arrange ideas in a logical order to use in your
essay
9. Useful when – trying to think of main points
for your paper or trying to outline your ideas
Example:
◦ Topic – Smoking on Campus
Mess from cigarette buds
Second hand smoke
Bad smell
Anti-smoking groups
Health effects
10. Sit down and write whatever is on your mind
Give yourself a time limit
DO NOT erase anything
Never stop writing, just write something
Remember that no idea is a bad idea when
freewriting
11. If you need to, use a prompt or question to
begin free writing
◦ Ex: Write for 15 minutes using the following phrase
as your first line…
“The stain will not come out…”
Useful when – starting a writing assignment,
thinking of a topic, or sorting through
thoughts
12. Lists are similar to brainstorming but involve
grouping your ideas as you write
First write down main ideas you have for your
paper
List related ideas or items under each main idea
Create new main ideas as need
◦ You may need to do this if some of your smaller ideas
don’t fit under an existing category or you don’t have
enough ideas for your paper
13. Useful when – trying to think of main ideas or
points for your paper
Example:
◦ Topic – Tablets in the Classroom
Benefits
Digital books can be cheaper
Students develop tech skills
Negative Effects
They are a distraction
Tablets can be expensive
14. Begin by writing down any questions you may have
about your topic or the prompt
Write any questions down that you think of as you
write
Questions should involve who, what, when, where,
and why as well as personal questions, like how you
can relate to the topic
Once you are all “questioned” out, begin researching
any questions that stand out to you
15. Some questions may lead to others, so don’t
be afraid to write them down while you are
researching
Useful when – creating a thesis or developing
a stand for a paper
16. Make a three column chart
1. Year
2. Events that took place that year
3. The emotions that were present at the time
Fill in the different years, events, and emotions as
they relate to your topic
Try to be as detailed as possible when writing your
information
17. Useful when – writing about a specific time or
writing an autobiographical piece
19. This is a type of prewriting that allows you to
explore several ideas as you think of them.
You can create these even when your ideas
aren’t clear.
20. Pick a broad topic and write it down in the center of a
paper.
Circle the word then write words that you think of as
you consider your topic
Write down any words you associate with your topic;
write quickly
Circle each word and group them around your central
topic
Connect new words to previous words
21. Useful when – trying to pick a topic of making
a topic more specific
22. Draw a place out and make where important
events happened
Only draw for a short time
Useful when – writing about a place or writing
an autobiographical piece
25. Find someone to work with
Tell them about the topic you are writing about
Share your ideas
Ask them any questions you may have
Encourage them to ask questions too
26. This works best if you develop a conversation
about your ideas, sharing new ideas and
questions.
Useful when – trying to think of different
ideas to include in your paper or possible
research questions
28. Once you have your topic, main ideas, and
supporting ideas, you can use them to create
an outline
Outlining your paper before writing can help
you make sure your paper has a clear
structure and organization
29. Consider these things:
◦ What is the purpose of your paper?
◦ Who is your audience?
◦ What is your thesis?
30. List all of your ideas that you want to include
in your paper
Group them into related categories
Arrange the information in a logical order (i.e.
general to specific)
Create and label main and sub headings.
31. Make sure your outline has:
◦ A thesis
◦ Main ideas supporting your thesis
◦ Supporting ideas for each main idea
◦ Any details or examples you will include in your
paper
32. Helps clarify your ideas before beginning
writing
Helps organize your ideas
Presents ideas logically and clearly
Shows a relationship between ideas
Creates a clear overall structure
33. These are just some of the different
prewriting techniques out there
Trying just one can help you come up with a
topic or ideas before writing your paper
Make sure to try different techniques to see
which you like best
