1. PREWRITING • Prewriting is the time when a writer plays with ideas and gathers information to prepare for the actual drafting. • It may involve reading, talking, or simply thinking about a topic. Owl. Teacher. com
During Prewriting, you must think about 4 things: v Topic v Format v. Audience v. Time Owl. Teacher. com
Topic • What is your story going to be about? • Brainstorm about interests and possible ideas. Owl. Teacher. com
Format • What type of writing are you going to do? • Are you writing a sentence, a paragraph, a theme, a journal entry, a letter, a poem, a fictional story, a research paper? Owl. Teacher. com
Audience • Who are you writing for? • Who do you expect to read your writing? – Teacher? – Parents? – Friends? – The general public? Owl. Teacher. com
Time • How much time will be devoted to this project? • Will you be expected to complete the writing assignment outside class, or will class time be given for discussion, for brainstorming, for revision? Owl. Teacher. com
2. DRAFTING • The stage when the writer begins to record ideas in rough form. • Getting started on a story is often difficult and may produce many false starts. • “How should I begin? ” Owl. Teacher. com
• A first draft is simply a time to gather, explore, and discover ideas. • It is NOT expected to be a final, polished writing. • No one needs to be worried about neatness, spelling, or mechanical correctness in the earliest draft. Owl. Teacher. com
• Freewriting – (also known as “spin writing” or “rush writing”) A technique where students write nonstop, capturing as many ideas as possible. • You jot down words, phrases, or sentences quickly. • Ideas coming with great speed and momentum often trigger other ideas along the way, and ideas are the goal of the earliest draft.

3. REVISING • Once a first draft is completed, writers begin to revise (“to see again”). • They look at what they have written and ask themselves if the ideas and purpose is clear to an audience. • They share the draft with their peers and/or teacher, listening to their responses and acting on them. Owl. Teacher. com
• Later drafts involve polishing the writing to present in final form to a particular audience. • Editing for spelling and mechanics happens in the final stage of revising. Owl. Teacher. com
At first. . . • You might believe that you are a hopeless writer when you can’t get your writing perfect right away. • As you work through and understand the writing process, you will realize that most writers (even professional authors) rework and revise all the time! Owl. Teacher. com
Presenting (or Publishing) • Usually only the teacher reads and grades a student’s writing. • However, you should share your writing with your parents, relatives, or friends! • You may also submit your writing to literary contests, professional publications, or local newspapers. • You may also use your writing as a gift to a trusted adult for special occasions.
