TASK 4


  • GRAMMAR : SEARCH FOR NOTES ON THE STAGES OF "WRITING PROCESS", TOPIC SENTENCES , SUPPORTING SENTENCES & CONCLUDING SENTENCES .
TOPIC SENTENCES
The topic sentence states the main idea of the paragraph. There are many ways in which one can do this.
Some possible techniques include: definition, analysis, statistics, comparison and contrast, and cause and effect.
The topic sentence needs to be the most general sentence of the paragraph. Meaning that it doesn't need to have too much detail of too much "fluff." The following sentences will then expand on the topic sentence. However, one does need to establish the point of the paragraph so that the reader can get a good idea of what the paragraph will include, just from the topic sentence.

SUPPORTING SENTENCES
Supporting details are also referred to as the body of the paragraph. They are called "supporting" sentences because they "support," or explain the ideas in the topic sentence. After a reader reads the topic sentence, a question should appear in the reader's mind.
For instance, take this topic sentence: "Mrs. Simmons is the best teacher I have ever had." The reader should then ask, "Why is she the best teacher you have ever had?" or "How is she different from other teachers?" The supporting sentences should then attempt to answer the reader's question.

CONCLUDING SENTENCES
You can think of the concluding sentence as the opposite of the topic sentence.
The conclusion sentence of a paragraph is not just a restatement of the topic sentence. It sets up the main thought or idea of the following paragraph. This transition sentence can be continued and explained on into the topic sentence of the following paragraph.
  • BLOG : IN YOUR OWN WORDS , DESCRIBE THE STAGES OF "WRITING PROCESS" . PROVIDE EXAMPLE OF THE TOPIC SENTENCES, SUPPORTING SENTENCES & CONCLUDING SENTENCES
Writing process is the steps in proper order on how to start writing. It helps writer or someone who wanted to write something gets an idea before prompting to continue what they are doing. Getting an inspiration is the main point of writing process. First step is try to get as many ideas as you can by doing the prewriting. The popular methods people usually use are free writing and brainstorming which means you will write everything that comes to your mind or write any topic that you like and jot down the ideas that arise from it. Its more easier than we could think. After getting the ideas, we need to plan the plot for it. Second step is to start the first draft. You need to expand the ideas you got from the first step. Write without worry about the error as it is the beginning to have a good masterpiece. Third step is to revise all the drafts you made. You might remove, add or rearrange some part of it so it would be in right order as it will be the plot of the story. Fourth step is to edit the work and this need to be done after the revising process. It requires you to take a close view on each of your words so it won't get any mistakes on grammar, spelling or repeat words. Last but not least is to publish your work and be read by readers.
