Wednesday 02/21 Writing - Redrafting Our American Revolution Research Reports

Purpose: As a writer, I can evaluate my writing to help REdraft my research report.

1. Connection:  Information Writing Process
2. Evaluation:  Information Writing Checklist
3. Application: REdraft your report
• Avoid contractions--instead of didn't or weren't, try did not or were not.
• Use expert language from your research.
• Use fancy transition words like therefore, additionally, in other words, and on the other hand.
• Use your checklist to identify and complete your "Not Yet" and "Starting To" elements.
