Making Nonfiction from Scratch
Author: Ralph Fletcher
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1003842518
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 95
Book Description
Do you have students whose nonfiction writing is formulaic, devoid of energy and voice? In Making Nonfiction from Scratch bestselling PD and children's book author Ralph Fletcher offers a candid critique of how nonfiction writing is often taught in schools and gives teachers the inspiration and strategies they need to help their students write authentic nonfiction. Skilled nonfiction writers draw on strategies, techniques, and craft found in other genres: poetry, comedy, even mystery. Without those elements, nonfiction would be dry and dull. Making Nonfiction from Scratch helps bring all of those aspects together and shows how each genre can enrich nonfiction writing. Ralph emphasizes the power of choice, mentor texts, and nonfiction read-alouds in making nonfiction an everyday part of classrooms. Classroom Connection- sections throughout the book suggest immediate, practical strategies for putting the ideas in the book to use. Two case studies and a chapter on the dos and don'ts of nonfiction writing instruction round out this short, practical book. Any informational writing should be insightful, accurate, and well organized - but it doesn't have to be boring. Ralph invites you to make your classroom a place where students can create delicious nonfiction full of passion, voice, and insight.

Greenstreet
Author: Steven T. Pankey
Publisher: Page Publishing Inc
ISBN: 1662416733
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 228
Book Description
The story is told in well-arranged pieces. The book approaches two people who approach crime like theater. All the human characters in Greenstreet are strangers to one another. What they do not do is judge one another. For these two special people, their social function is to become millionaires. The book is about an illusory world a writer can create. Writing can be thought of as heroic. There is a barrier to success and a hurdle on the way to becoming a hero. Several people in the book take leaps in a change in their bearing. It is possible at times to lose oneself in the written world. The best reporter in this book is the reader. This is made possible by its emotional trickery. This alternative lets the reader speak critically about its comedy and tragedy. You may be able to observe your own change within. The idea is not to leave you narrow-minded. If you have ideas, do it. The book’s characters are telling you what to do. All within reason. There is opportunity here for people with ideas.
