Good morning Angela! First of all, I have to say that I felt so emotional when I read through your prewriting. I agree that sometimes we have to face really strong conflicts between our belief and our life, as in your story. Surely, every mother in this world always want to bring best things to her children’ s life; I know it because I am also a mother. Your mother just didn’t want you to encounter challenges yourself when you was too young. In my opinion, sometimes we have to follow what we think is right since no belief or religion asks their followers to give up their children at all. And you have done a very admiring job that is protecting your son. The fact that you show your mother that your decision is right has caused her to think again

Racial prejudice against minorities who live in America has been here since before America became a whole and it can be worked toward the change of the harsh realities many individuals face. Racial Injustice is something that numerous people confront each day and is likewise delineated through the novels Just Mercy and To Kill A Mockingbird. This world has made many innovative advancements in the last fifty years, but the one thing that hasn’t been conquered is to root out racism, which can be shown to be widespread in many societies. Fear and anger are one of the leading factors that contribute to the opposition of justice and to truly make a commitment to justice one must first overcome that
The boy’s mother was raised in poverty. Her mother taught her how to use the governmental system and the streets to survive. My wife and I had never been subject to welfare or any government assistance programs before so many things was new to use when we tried to help his mother get back on her feet. I was very shocked to learn that his mother, whom was twenty-three years old has never done such things as craving pumpkins, coloring Easter eggs and even putting up a Christmas tree. She was raised in such a different social group then my family. I felt very sorry for her because of her past and wanted to help get her out of the situation she had been raised in. Then a few months had passed and things was not getting any better she had stopped coming and seeing her son and I noticed drug addicts coming and in and out of her house. At that moment, I knew she had fallen a victim to her surroundings. The child’s mother had suffered through a very difficult childhood, and at the age of thirteen her own mother had prostituted her out to
after choosing a interested topic, I spend roughly twenty minutes for prewriting stage. Then, I refresh my brain by standing up, walking around or just closing my eyes and listening to relaxing instrumental music for thirty minutes. Later on when I come back to build my outline with fresher mind, I can carefully select the supportive ideas and get rid of the one which off the topic. I spend a lot of time to organize the ideas for my outline because having a well-arranged outline helps me stay focus on my assignment. The following stage is writing. I start to write after I left the outline aside for hours or a day (depending on how hard my assignment is). After that, I read my essay verbally to make sure that my papers have coherency and smooth
The neurochemical changes that take place when restricting food and binging are mirrored by those with addiction to drugs and alcohol. A dysfunction hypothalamus is an additional part of the brain that is involved in controlling appetite and eating patterns. The hypothalamus is thought of as the on and off switch for producing and suppressing feelings of hunger (Wadden et. al, 2004). Research demonstrates that those given MRI’s show abnormal activity in both the ventromedial hypothalamus and the lateral hypothalamus (Cash & Smolak, 2011). Both parts work together to create the homeostasis one’s appetite. Those diagnosed with anorexia nervosa may have an abnormal activity in the lateral hypothalamus that creates a sense of hunger. Whereas
After reading the giving pages this week there are many things I do when writing a paper that Newman suggest that everyone do when writing. When it comes to prewriting I am not so good in that area. Sometimes, I fail to do this this step in my writing and it needs to be completed every time to get all my thoughts out clearly. "Prewriting means that a writer begins with a file folder full of notes, outlines, and lists. You must think about the form of the report and audience. Thinking time is important. It often occurs in spurts over weeks before the bulk of composing begins". This is an important step in writing and that step gives us time to think about our topics fully before we begin an assignment correctly. Another topic that stood out
When it comes to the stages of writing there are five stages a writer has to go through and they are; prewriting, writing, writing, revision, editing, and publishing. Pre-writing is the first stage of writing, and looking back at my graded Visual Evaluation Essay I could have had a better written essay if I had acknowledged the pre-writing process. I usually do not pre-write for any of my essays, and this affected my grade for my Visual Evaluation Essay because pre-writing gives you the opportunity to free write, brainstorm, and plan the structure of you essay. The next step after the pre-writing process is the writing stage. The writing stage is a build up of the pre-writing stage, and is the stage where you make your fist rough draft without
Every student should know about the writing process, since elementary school, we have used the writing process. Now I’m a senior and taking a college writing course still struggle with some aspects of the writing process. I struggle with all 5 writing process in some way or another. Some a barley struggle and some I really struggle with and need to improve to improve my writing. Although some high school senior use their lack of experience with the writing process to explain not challenging themselves I use this same theory but to justify enrolling a senior writing class.
Prewriting defines any kind of opening work that comes first in the actual paper writing. It does not necessarily have to be writing. In Fact, prewriting can just be strenuous thinking about what you want to write your paper about. Personally, my favorite technique is journaling. I like this technique best because it is used as an on-going process. When using the other techniques, brainstorming, freewriting, clustering, mind mapping, and question-asking, they can wait until you have your paper assignment and are thinking about where to start. Journaling is great throughout your assignment with whatever material you could possibly be writing about. Also, it can involve pieces of all the previous techniques that where mentioned above. However,
Writing varies from a text message to a novel. Writers often have a difficult task in creating a piece of work that truly identifies the meaning of good writing. Every good writer usually starts with the basics such as genre, audience, rhetorical situation, and reflection of the piece. Throughout this semester, we have gone through all of these key terms in great detail with each new assignment that has come our way. In doing this, not only as students but also as writers, we have come to create our own theory of writing. Every writer has a different theory of writing though most are very similar. Now, at this point in the semester after doing countless journals, in-class exercises, and final assignments, I think I have figured out my own
Writing research paper was harder than I expected. I have written the research paper in high school, but it was the first time I wrote a research paper without any given sources. In my high school, there were the provided sources which I could use to support my argument. However, for this assignment, I had to find all outside sources for my thesis, and it was the most difficult part to me. Before I started my research paper, I read many articles about the importance of writing skill in college and made the notes for the first draft. After that, I set up my argument first and started to background.
Prewriting is the stage of the writing process during which you transfer your abstract thoughts into more concrete ideas in ink on paper (or in type on a computer screen). Freewriting is an exercise in which you write freely about any topic for a set amount of time (usually three to five minutes). During the time limit, you may jot down any thoughts that come to your mind. Try not to worry about grammar, spelling, or punctuation. Instead, write as quickly as you can without stopping. Freewriting is like stream-of-consciousness writing in which you write down whatever happens to be in your thoughts at the moment Brainstorming is similar to list making. You can make a list on your own or in a group with your classmates. Start with a blank
Reflect on a moment on the last special moment you had, heard, told, or read. What made that specific moment or the story remain with you? Was it a special, dramatic, terrifying, loving moment or participant in the action? An interesting set of circumstances? Was it told in an amusing or serious manner, and did it make you react emotionally?

There will be some helpful facts and responses on how to become great at prewriting in all documents.
Thoughts and language are the foundation that is required to create writing. Writing is a unique form of expressing thoughts. Even children can express their thoughts in words, and call their work a piece of writing. However writing should be used as a way to express worldly views. Writing should be used to explain, to share, to provoke. The simple concept of thoughts on paper can influence generations, and create meaning. Everything from the Bible, to the Declaration of Independence has influenced millions of people. This concept of thoughts on paper can also be categorized as effective writing, or plain words on paper. However, the characteristics of good writing consists of deep explanations of the world around us, and can emotionally
Thank you, but I do not think that will do much help because I obviously do not know APA like I thought I did. Rewriting week one paper, writing week four, and doing the extra credit is a lot to have turned in in one week, not to mention the week 3 paper I turned in will probably be wrong like the week one paper. So, if I already have one offense that you reported week 3 would make two, and I cannot risk getting kicked out of Bethel for something that needs to be re taught to me all over again. I talked to my advisor today and I decided it will be best for me to drop the class and get the help I need so this want happen
