Blog Corrections
Q. Q. Song
The Writing Process

HW: RJ 4.1 T.O.  p.131- 149


Today, we started off by doing the quote of the week, which is ''Sometimes a breakdown can be the beginning of a kind of breakthrough, a way of living in advance through a trauma that prepares you for a future of radical transformation." by Cherrie Moraga. (Before we did anything we did blog corrections.) Then, we moved on to the question of the week which is "How do you take of yourself in stressful times?" After we did the question of the week, we did the song of the week, which is "Blue Jeans and White T-Shirts." by Gaslight Anthem.  We then, moved to The Writing Process.

The Writing Process:

1. Thinking of an idea ~ PRE - WRITING 
                                       lists     bullet points
                                       notes
                                       diagram/ chart 
2. Writing all sentences/ paragraphs ~ DRAFTING

3.  Re- read and make it better. Add ideas - take out ideas that don't fit ~ REVISING

4. EDITING- Spelling, Capitalization, Punctuation

5. PUBLISHING- Share it- turn it in!


That was all for today.
