February 13, 2012
Today we reviewed stage three of the writing process. We discussed the acronym CLUESS, which stands for: Coherence, Language, Unity, Emphasis, Support, Sentences. One of my favorite features would be, tone. When we discussed tone in class, everyone was very involved. For me, trying to act out a sentence with an objective tone was not quite easy being that I'm a very nice person and it's hard for me to speak in an angry voice. As far as learning the different features of revising a good writing, the topic today really helped my ongoing learning of proper writing skills. Like I mentioned in one of my earlier blogs, I'm more of a free writer. All these writing processes are helpful when it comes writing material for class, I really would hate to fail based off what I haven't really put my mind to. I am appreciative that it's a small class because if it was any bigger my chances of really sharpening my knowledge would be 50/50.

I agree with you. Big classes are harder to learn in. I know back home we never had small classes they were always 30 or more. It was cramped and just an unsatisfactory way for kids to learn. I hope they resolve this problem soon. But I hope to sharpen my skills as well.
ReplyDeleteI also enjoyed the tone! going over the examples as a class, i had a lot of fun!
ReplyDeleteI love that our class is so small. It gives us a chance to become more open and comfortable with one another. The tone part of the class was the best! At least you had the courage to try. I am sure that if that was me, I would totally flip out. There are so many rules to follow with the stages of writing. I hope they help me when writing our next paper.
