A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

The Write Start: Paragraphs to Essays introduces the developing writer to the basic elements necessary for writing effective essays in the academic environment. The Third Edition focuses first on writing paragraphs that express thoughts about a topic, then on expanding the topic to the longer essay format. These skills will help students communicate more effectively and prepare them for the rigors of their first college-level composition course.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Clear and straightforward, The Write Start with Readings: Paragraphs to Essays is a developmental work-text designed to build writing, revision, and critical-thinking skills by getting students writing from the start.

The text models the entire writing process, from prewriting to proofreading, with a model paragraph, and extends the writing process model to writing the introductory, body, and conclusion paragraphs of an essay. It then continues instruction in the various modes of development, teaching students to write paragraphs and essays in each mode. Throughout the text, students are given ample practice in applying the techniques and thinking skills to their own writing. Also included are sample student and professional essays to encourage critical thinking and discussion. “The Writer's Resource” appendix provides opportunities for students to work on targeted skills in grammar, punctuation, and ESL concerns.
