Topic: Why I need to be passed Strong Verb: Compromise
Some important things we need to discuss today are the importance of me. The reason I'm addressing this is because I am in no room for compromise, because I am here to make this economy better. I am what makes the world go around and without others like me the world wouldn't be where it is today. I am designed to help America and to make us better. I want there to be more school holidays, and I will not compromise at all. I believe there should be more holidays because people in America work really hard and need a break. Having me passed will create a lot of happier people, make time for family and defiantly will boost our economy, because people will want to go back to work. Pass me please I promise I won't compromise anything and guarantee complete satisfaction.
For the writing strategies, i believe that i unconsciously do some of them without even knowing such as playing with language. I think I just put that in the paper because it sounds good, I never knew it was called playing with language. Before I write a paper I try to find out as much as I know about what I am writing about so that I will have enough information to write it easily. I do an outline(short) just so that I can have something to follow just in case I get off topic. I try and make everything come together. I don't think I revise meaning, but if that means using the thesaurus to figure out other words to use, I defiantly do that. When I write a paper I do visualize how it will come out, but I also visualize how the reader is going to respond. I do summarize, and make connections and evaluate. I have just finished writing a paper for one of my other classes and I found myself using most of these writing strategies.

Your RAFT is really good, you have great ideas and ways of putting things into perspective. The organization is great and i really enjoyed reading it.
ReplyDeleteI agree that most people do use the steps unconsciously. I think because we have all been writing so long that most steps are ingrained in our memory!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your RAFT writing. If only it were reality to be able to influence peoples of government with our words...as for your perspective on the writing strategies, I believe we are not in the minority when we agree with you that everyone probably do the same thing. Just like breathing, we do it without realizing we do it. ;o)
