Download or read book The Train Of Thought Writing Method written by Kathi Macias and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2005-02-14 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is said that writing is 10 percent inspiration and 90 percent perspiration. I absolutely agree, and Im sure most successful writers would echo my sentiments: Inspiration is the easy part. Over the years I have spoken with and taught beginning writers from all around the world, in all sorts of settings. I have helped them review, edit, and rewrite their work, and I have found one common thread among those would-be writers who eventually become published authors: They are willing to devote themselves to the not-so-easy part of writingthe 90 percent perspiration. As I worked with these many writers I discovered what I consider to be the simplest and most practical writing method availablethe train-of-thought method. This excellent, well known writing method did not originate with me, but it seems no one had ever taken the time to put the method in book form. I therefore decided to do so myself. This is not a book about proper grammar or punctuation, or how best to choose the voice or set the scene for your great American novel. There are already countless books covering those subjects, if thats what youre looking for. But if you want to know how best to take your thoughts and dreams and put them into a clear, compelling, readable manuscript, then this is the book for you. Having personally seen the train-of-thought writing method help so many new writers learn to organize, write, and polish their ideas into successful manuscripts, I offer this book to those who would do the same. May it direct and encourage you as you enter into the 90 percent perspiration phase of your writing careerthe serious phase through which true writers are formed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Most Effective Way to Master the 200 Sight Words Essential to your Child's Reading & Writing Success From the trusted name in children's education worldwide comes the biggest and most comprehensive sight word learning and practice workbook. Once your child has mastered these key words they will: ✅ Read far more fluently ✅ Write with greater ease ✅ Spell with increased accuracy ✅ Boost reading comprehension ✅ Accelerate language learning Why Your Child MUST Master Sight Words Sight words are a set of words that constantly appear on almost any page of writing, such as 'who, does, come, we'. They are the building blocks of written language. However, many sight words cannot be 'sounded out' because they do not follow the standard rules of spelling. The child has to memorize sight words as a whole, by sight, so that they recognize them immediately without having to decode the spelling. The problem is that minimal instruction is given by teachers and parents. Often, little more is done than showing the word to the child and telling them what it is. However, for many children, this is not nearly enough. As a result, their reading and comprehension of these crucial words is lacking, which significantly brings down their overall reading ability. Scholdener's Sight Word Workbook is the solution. A Multi-Dimensional Approach Educational research has shown that the best technique for learning sight words is accurate writing and spelling of the word, comprehension of its use in a simple sentence, and a visual representation of the phrase to reinforce how the word is used in context. Scholdener's Sight Word Workbook is the only workbook that uses this multi-dimensional model for each and every one of its 200 words. This ensures that the child really grasps the sight word, along with its spelling, meaning and usage. In teaching terms, giving your child the opportunity to learn words in proper context is known as 'meaningful reading'. This is an extremely effective tool that has been shown to be far superior for retention than plain memorization or rote learning. Includes Dolche Word List Educator Dr Edward William Dolch developed the 'Dolch Sight Words List' by studying the most frequently occurring words in children's books. These words comprise a staggering 80% of the words you would find in a standard children's book. Once a child knows this list of words, it makes reading much easier. You'll be pleased to know that this workbook incorporates the key Dolch words. Book Details 8.5" x 11" - Large size provides plenty of room for writing inside. 200 sight words - TWICE as many as other workbooks. More than 100 pages of writing exercises.
