I will split my 90 minutes in three sections, I will read the passage for about 10 minutes and understand the passage and the author's main idea. after that I will pre-write my essay in my own words and spend about 20 minutes and finally write the essay and review in 50 minutes.
First, In my essay i will summarize the passage in my own words. I will state the author's most important ideas about the passage. Develop my essay by identifying atleast one idea in the passage in my own words that I feel especially significant. I will support my claims with examples drawn from what I have read and experienced in my life.
After, I will write my essay and after completing I will review my essay and make any changes or corrections, if needed, that will help my reader to follow what I have written about and use appropriate vocabulary to make ideas more clear.
I think it is smart to split the time wisely--these numbers should work well! :-)
ReplyDeleteWhat I will do, then, when we take test exams, is call the time so the class can learn to pace themselves.
