Many Writers Use Patterns, called Authors’ Style…Patterns: Basic, simple, to the point sentencesLong, flowing, descriptive sentencesMixture of simple, medium, and long sentences!

What is your author’s style?

Remember: Never join more than two sentences together. Readers need to follow and visualize writing.

Your author’s style is like your fingerprint—it is unique!

Conferencing & Grading Essays

1. Score each essay with the student beside you. This offers great one-on-one tutoring time!

2. Build grading time into the class schedule

3. Students work on skills assignments or on the next essay assignment while writing conferences take place.

4. Read the essay aloud to the student (if time permits)

5. Use a rubric to score the essay

6. Optional: Students redo essays if errors are numerous and distract readers. The objective is to learn and master skills, which takes practice!

CCCC Position Statement on Writing

1. Writing assessment is useful primarily as a means of improving teaching and learning. The primary purpose of any assessment should govern its design, its implementation, and the generation and dissemination of its results.

2. Writing is by definition social. Learning to write entails learning to accomplish a range of purposes for a range of audiences in a range of settings.

3. Any individual's writing ability is a sum of a variety of skills employed in a diversity of contexts, and individual ability fluctuates unevenly among these varieties.

4. Perceptions of writing are shaped by the methods and criteria used to assess writing.

5. Assessment programs should be solidly grounded in the latest research on learning, writing, and assessment.

Breakdown of Daily Class Routine: First 10 Minutes of Class: 1. Journal Writing: On-Demand writing not graded for content, but counted for number of days students participated. For examples and more information, read Journal Writing in the Classroom (Kindle/Nook)Next 10 Minutes: 2. Questions and Examples over Mini-lessons that Introduce SkillsRemainder of Class: Proofreading: Find and fix the skills inside your essay3. 3. Read-arounds: done in small groups of at least 4-5, students (Remember: Read as written! Pause for commas/stop at ends of sentences. Read with feeling!) 2. Peer workshopping of group members’ essays using workshopping sheet. Guide students individually or whole group, as needed, through highlighting of skills for the first peer workshopping attempt. Afterwards, students pass the essays with their workshopping sheets clockwise in groups and highlight skills listed on the Peer Workshopping Sheet handout. Remember, the first workshopper has the hardest job! 3. Instructor/Teacher waits for questions and acts as coach and tutor to reteach skills4. Students correct errors within essays for next peer workshopping or for final and they repeat steps 1-7 as neededGrading:5. Essays are graded using a rubric reviewed before starting the assignment. In-class individual student/teacher conferences are used for grading essays

(Repeat steps as often as needed during class time) ©Beth Hammett

Many Writers Use Patterns, called Authors’ Style:

Pattern: Simple, to the point, sentences:It was late. There was black smoke from the rock chimney. It made curly-cues through the midnight blue sky. The train’s whistle pierced the quietness of the night. Owls hooted. Coyotes howled. The chugging of the engine bothered neither soul nor beast.

Pattern: Mixture of simple, medium, and long sentences:It was late. The black smoke from the rock chimney made curly-cues through the midnight blue sky. Suddenly, the train’s whistle pierced the quietness of the night. Owls hooted. Coyotes howled. Yet, the chugging of the engine bothered neither soul nor beast.

Pattern: Long, flowing, descriptive sentences:It was late, and the black smoke from the rock chimney made curly-cues through the midnight blue sky as the train’s whistle pierced the quietness of the night; owls hooted while coyotes howled as the chugging of the engine bothered neither soul nor beast.

Author’s style is like a fingerprint—each is unique. Look at a piece of your writing. Use three different colors of highlighters, rotate these to underline each sentence. Can you find your pattern/style?

Directions: Take turns reading the below passages. Read as written, and breath only at end marks.
