Writer’s WorkshopLesson 7 Minilesson Fitting Information into Writing
Topic: Types of Frogs • “My friend once found a frog in his backyard that weighed 8 pounds.” • Does this belong in this section? • This could be written in the “fun facts” section of an All About Frogs book because it is not addressing types of frogs.
Topic: Football • “The University of Michigan has one of the best college football teams in the country.” • Does this fit in this section? • Yes, because the author is writing about The University of Michigan football team.
Topic: Washington, D.C. • “The Capitol Building where people make laws, is in the center of Washington D.C.” • Does this belong in this section? • Yes, because the author is telling the reader about the design of the city.
Topic: Cars • “My uncle rides a bicycle to work everyday.” • Does this work in this section? • No, because the author should be writing about cars, not bicycles.
