  3. P. O. W. E. R. • P – Prewriting Prewriting/brainstorming is the process of generating (developing) a lot of information within a short time using the prompt that is given. • Jot down all the possible terms that emerge from the general topic you are thinking about. • Simply write down a lot of possibilities. • Group the items that you have listed according to arrangements that make sense to you. • Write a sentence or two about the group of ideas. This could possibly be your thesis statement.

  4. P. O. W. E. R. • O – Organization Graphic organizers are a helpful way to organize information. Graphic organizers are helpful because: • They help you understand how things go together. • They help you remember information better. • They make it easier to write your final draft. • They help organize any type of writing.

  5. P. O. W. E. R. • W – Write! Begin writing your paper. • Put the information you brainstormed about into your own words. • Write sentences and paragraphs even if they are not perfect. • Read what you have written and judge if it says what you mean.

  6. P. O. W. E. R. • E – EditEditing is to check spelling, punctuation, grammar, vocabulary and if your story makes sense. • Editing is one of the most important parts of making a story. • You are checking for accuracy in your writing. • You will be checking for grammar, spelling, punctuation and capitalization mistakes.

  7. P. O. W. E. R. • R – Revise Revising means to change things in the text! • All you need to do is to make corrections in your story. • For instance, if you wrote this: • Me and my sister went to the park. • You should change it to: • My sister and I went to the park. • If you forgot something, now is the time to add things. • You might want to reorganize things. • Maybe you put in a sentence that doesn't match or doesn't fit with the other sentences. • As you read through the text make sure you’re saying what you want to say.
