WRITING REFERENCE PAGES
These handy pages are designed to be used throughout the year as reference sheets for persuasive, argumentative and narrative writings.
Here are a few specific ways I use the reference pages:
1) My college students use the transition pages to polish essays and term papers.
2) I require students to use colors, proper settings, and specific times to add authenticity to narrative pieces. *This is my favorite (and the easiest) way to get students to add details to drab writings.
3) To encourage sentence variety, demonstrate revision strategies, and sharpen grammar skills, I have students memorize the preposition list, starting with the first 11 prepositions. I then ask students to use one of the prepositions at the beginning and at the end of two companion sentences.
Examples:
After dinner, I always eat a bowl of mint chocolate chip ice cream.
