The Writing Process

At my ESL class, we are learning how to create an Expository Essay. We were told to do this different steps:

• First pick ours topics,
• second, brainstorm,
• third, organized ours ideas,
• then look for more information in the web,
• and finally explained to the instructor if the website is it helpful and trustful or not.

The parts of a writing process are:

• Invention
• Collection
• Organization
• Drafting
• Revising
• and Proofreading (it is for grammar)

"Expository Essay".

An expository essay are usually written by critical thinking and researchers and it frequently used at college. There are 4 differents characteristics such as:

• Thesis: when you start writing an expository essay you should put a little paragraph about what the topic will be before the INTRODUCTION.

• Facts: it has to be in information that can be prove or realistic of the topic.

• Neutral: the essay should not focus in only one side, it needs to be in an central form (Let said your talking about party A B, you do not focus about only A rahter than B has to be equal).

• Third person: an expository essay do not need to be written rather the me or I.

An expository essay also has 4 ways to develop it:

• Topic: this is the What the text you will writte it's about.

• Time Order: It is of how chonologically are the topic its going to be. (first, second... few years ago, now...).

• Space Order: Giving the main information at the middle of the context.

• Informative Process: It is like "how to" of an essay or demonstration.

''What is a Summary?"

It is to re-state or paraphrase a text or an article including VIPs MVP but does not include your opinion.

Steps:
*First you need to read the passage.

*Decide what you think it is important to write it down.

*paraphrase in 1 or 2 sentences.

*Write the first draft.

*Then, look over both of them(between your summary and the original one)
for whatever adjustment.

*Finally revise your summary.


Hints:

• It doesn't include your opinion.
• You must say from where the article come from, and the author/s name/s.
• Only use author's last name.
