Paragraphs and Essays

Today in class we learned alot of important information in writing an essay or research
paper.

There are two effective tips when planning to write a paper:

1. Listing: Think of your topic, then list as many ideas you think that relate to
your topic.
2. Bubble Clusters: In the center of your paper, you write your main topic, draw
a circle around it, and connect ideas, and with the idea, you
cannot another ideas. It's an endless way to do things, but it
can help you to broaden you imagination.

When writing the "About Me" essay, I actually used one of the methods, Listing.
It was not until later in the class that we learn it. These methods actually help.
They save time and prove effectiveness.

That is great that you used listing for your About Me Essay. I used free writing, it makes it so much easier right? I'm glad we are learning this. I sure will use bubble clusters, thanks for further explaining it, it really helps...=)
