IEW UNIT 7- Inventive Writing & the 5 Paragraph Model

Prior IEW experience (at least through Unit 4)  is necessary for this class. We will be building on the foundations of Key Word Outlining. Students will be required to incorporate all Stylistic Techniques learned in other classes. Topic/ Clincher and Title rules will be reviewed quickly. 

Session 1 - We will spend time discussing "division of thought." Students will see how you can write a 5 paragraph paper on any topic by coming up with subtopics. This invaluable skill can be applied to any subject. The student will walk through an example together in class. For homework, students will come up with a topic they wish to write about and write 3 paragraphs on 3 sub-topics 

Session 2 - I will introduce the elements of a conclusion and introduction paragraph. Including dramatic openers and stating your opinion in a paper. For homework, students will write the introduction and conclusion of their paper. 

Session  3 - Students will share where they are at in the process. I will quiz students to make sure they understand the order of elements in a 5 paragraph essay. Finally, I will instruct on how to do a reverse outline and do a verbal presentation from one's paper.
