DAY 1: Day one introduces the Unit I/II method of note making, and a few "dress-up" techniques, rewriting both a fiction and non-fiction article. Day one PM presents the Unit III story sequence chart, adds a few stylistic techniques, using a short fable or fairy tale, with options to vary the characters and setting. DAY 2: Day two introduces Unit IV; how to write research reports. A simple research process using a set of animal "Mini-Books" for isolating topics, note taking and writing a short research report are taught. Gradual expansion of the style checklist adds a few "Sentence Openers." DAY 3: Day three jumps to Unit VII, creative writing, where students transfer the skill of note taking from source material to taking "notes from their brain" to write about something they know from their life, experience, or imagination. |
