The Writing Process
Have you ever struggled to explain The Writing Process to your students? Have you ever wished you had something more interesting and attention-getting than a textbook to present the steps for writing a good essay, but didn’t have the money to invest in colorful posters or costly videos? Have you ever said to yourself, if I just had time, I’d make my own presentation?
If you answered “yes” to one or more of these questions, then this multi-faceted unit is for you.
