Timed Writing Topics: Question 1: Summarize the main points of this textbook Question 2: Evaluate your own academic writing skills Scope and Sequence v Overview Framed by engaging National Geographic images, the new edition of the Great Writing series helps students write better sentences, paragraphs, and essays The new Foundations level meets the needs of low-level learners through practice in basic grammar, vocabulary, and spelling, while all levels feature clear explanations, student writing models, and meaningful practice opportunities The new edition of the Great Writing series is perfect for beginning to advanced learners, helping them develop and master academic writing skills Great Writing: Foundations focuses on basic sentence construction, emphasizing grammar, vocabulary, spelling, and composition Great Writing focuses on sentences as they appear in paragraphs Great Writing teaches paragraph development Great Writing transitions from paragraphs to essays Great Writing focuses on essays Great Writing practices more advanced essays The earliest ESL composition textbooks were merely extensions of ESL grammar classes The activities in these books did not practice English composition as much as ESL grammar points Later books, on the other hand, tended to focus too much on the composing process We feel that this focus ignores the important fact that the real goal for English learners is both to produce a presentable product and to understand the composing process From our years of ESL and other L2 teaching experience, we believe that the Great Writing series allows English learners to achieve this goal Great Writing 4: Great Essays provides introductory instruction and extensive practical exercises and activities in essay writing at the high-intermediate and advanced levels This book contains a wide variety of exercises that offer practice in both working with the writing process and developing a final written product We assume that students can write good paragraphs and that what they need is instruction in, modeling of, and guidance with essays This book is designed for high-intermediate to advanced students Depending on the class level and the amount of writing that is done outside of class hours, there is enough material for 60 to 80 classroom hours Provided that enough writing is done outside of the classroom, the number of hours can be as little as 40 Organization In Great Writing 4, Units 1-6 deal with the elements of a good essay Unit presents the overall organization of an essay, and offers some specific suggestions for writing the introduction of an essay, including how to write a good hook and a solid thesis statement Units through teach five different kinds of essays-narrative, comparison, cause-effect, argument, and reaction While it is not necessary to cover these five essay types in the given order, the current sequencing will allow for some recycling of grammatical and lexical items The Brief Writers Handbook with Activities and the Appendices contain additional practice material to support both the process and the mechanics of writing vi Contents of a Unit Although each unit has specific writing objectives (listed at the beginning of the unit), the following features appear in every unit: Example Essays Because we believe that writing and reading are inextricably related, the 22 example essays model a rhetorical mode and/or provide editing activities Many models are preceded by schema building questions and followed by questions about organization, syntactic structures, or other composition features New, potentially unfamiliar vocabulary words are glossed at the end of each paragraph These words can provide students with a list of vocabulary to add to a separate vocabulary notebook Grammar for Writing Since good writing requires a working knowledge of the mechanics of English, Great Writing includes clear charts and detailed instruction that relates directly to the writing assignments In addition, numerous activities give students the opportunity to practice and refine their grammar and writing knowledge and skills Activities The new fourth edition contains numerous activities, suggestions for additional essay writing assignments, and supplemental activities in The Brief Writers Handbook These writing, grammar, and vocabulary activities gradually build the skills students need to write well-crafted essays and provide learners with more input in English composition and paragraph organization and cohesion To this end, the activities in this book deal with elements that affect the quality of a written product, including grammar, organization, and logic Although in this text there is information about both process and product in essay writing, it should be noted that the focus is slightly more on the final written product Building Better Vocabulary Each unit includes two vocabulary activities to build schema and collocations In the first activity, Word Associations, the students identify words that best relate to the target vocabulary word This allows them to build connections to more words and thus grow their vocabulary more quickly Words from the Academic Word List are starred (see pages 183-184 for the complete list) The second activity, Using Collocations, helps students learn specific word combinations, or collocations, which will improve their writing It is helpful to encourage students to use these new words in their Original Student Writing assignment and to add them to a vocabulary notebook Writer's Notes Great Writing features writing advice that helps writers to better understand use and format Building Better Sentences Periodically in each unit, students are asked to turn to Appendix and work on building better sentences Each practice is intentionally short and includes only three problems In each problem, there are three to five short sentences that the students must combine into a single sentence that expresses all the ideas in a logical and grammatically correct manner Original Student Writing Each unit includes an activity that requires students to some form of writing Original Student Writing includes writing prompts and a set of directions to encourage students to follow the writing process and refer back to the lessons taught in the unit Overview viji Additional Writing Topics gives students the opportunity to continue practicing their writing skills The first topic always links back to the opening photograph and writing prompt The instructor can decide whether all students will write about the same topic or whether each student is free to choose any of the topics listed Peer Editing At the end of each unit, a peer editing activity offers students the opportunity to provide written comments to one another with the goal of improving their essays Peer editing sheets for each unit can be found at NGL.Cengage.com/GW4 and provide the guidance and structure necessary for students at this level to perform this task successfully There is also a sample in Appendix on page 208 We recommend that students spend 15 to 20 minutes reading a classmate's essay and writing comments using the questions on the peer editing sheet Timed Writing One way to improve students' comfort level with the task of writing under a deadline, such as during a testing situation, is to provide them with numerous writing opportunities that are timed The final activity in each unit features a timed-writing prompt geared toward the grammar and sentence structure presented in that unit Students are given five minutes to read the prompt and make a quick writing plan, followed by 40 minutes of actual writing Instructors may use this activity at any time during the lesson What's New in This Edition? • Engaging images from National Geographic connect learning to the greater world • New and updated essays act as springboards and models for writing • Updated
