Last week in our table groups we discussed what some great writing goals would be. We brought our ideas together as a class and now have a list of goals to use. When we edit our buddy's writing and when we're coming up with goals for ourselves we can use this list. Here are the goals:
Awesome Writing Goals
- Increase the amount of my writing
- interesting/engaging words - thesaurus / dictionary - disco words
- strong nouns and verbs
- punctuation
- Openers and connectors
- Use different sentence starters and words to connect sentences.
- Focused writing
- Paragraphs
- Vary sentence lengths
- Add detail
- Structure my writing - sequence it (order events)
- Write in the same tense (past/present)
- Strong personal voice - i.e sense of humour
- Editing my writing to make it stronger. This could mean removing words, adding new ones, changing sentences, etc
- Brainstorming
- Add senses and feelings/thoughts to my writing to make it stronger
- Show and don’t always tell the reader
- Spelling
