Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How to Make Good Writing Great Are you overlooking the essential writing skill that turns good writing into great writing? Do you want to know the real secret of great writers? It's a secret hidden in plain sight. Great writers know that great writing depends on choosing the right words. Choosing the Right Words Why does choosing the right words matter so much? Writing is nothing more than choosing words and arranging them into a readable form. Great writing happens when your word choices communicate in a compelling way exactly what you mean to say to your readers and your readers understand exactly what you mean. Choosing the right words sounds simple enough. But choosing the right words is not always easy. Do you ever feel frustrated that you can't find exactly the right word to say exactly what you mean? Do you feel upset when readers misunderstand what you are intend to say? Do you feel that you need to expand your vocabulary to impress readers with your knowledge of impressive words? Do you read the words of great writers and feel jealous that you can't write as well? Do you wonder what they know that you don't know? Your Writing Can't Be Better Than Your Word Choices The secret hidden in plain sight is that your skill as a writer depends on the quality of your relations with the words you use. The simple fact is that your writing can't be any better than your word choices. The better you know your words and the better care you take of them, the better writer you will become. Topics in On Writing Words On Writing Words is not about writing technique. Rather it is about the essential relations between you and the words you use. Topics include: Learning to Write Making Language Visible Relations with Words Relations or Relationship? Word by Word Using Words Words as Teachers Words Separate The Right Words Making Words Invisible Private Words and Public Words What Your Words Can Do for You When you pay close attention to your relations with words, words become more than tools.

When you write, everything you do is about you and your relationship with language, one word at a time. Find out how to expand your relations with words now.

Download or read book The Multiple Intelligences of Reading and Writing Making the Words Come Alive written by Thomas Armstrong and published by ASCD. This book was released on 2003-04-15 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We normally think of reading and writing as skills that are a part of linguistic intelligence. In The Multiple Intelligences of Reading and Writing: Making the Words Come Alive, Thomas Armstrong shows how involving the other seven intelligences--logical-mathematical, spatial, bodily-kinesthetic, musical, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalistic--will help students acquire reading and writing skills, especially those students who are not particularly strong in linguistic intelligence. The Multiple Intelligences of Reading and Writing appeals to all educators who work with reading and writing skills, from the preschool teacher leading the class in phonemic awareness activities to the post-graduate professor helping students examine kinesthetic imagery in Shakespeare's plays. The book combines Howard Gardner's MI theory and recent brain research on reading and writing with historical, anthropological, biographical, and psychological perspectives on literacy. Armstrong pulls the research together to show you how to engage students by infusing the study of words with imagery, logic, oral language, physical activity, emotion, music, social involvement, and nature experiences. Armstrong provides hundreds of ideas, strategies, tips, and resources for teaching everything from grammar and spelling to word decoding and reading comprehension. His strategic approach synthesizes the best reading and writing methods for application in preK-12 classrooms, literacy programs, speech and language pathology groups, one-to-one tutoring sessions, and all other settings where words are the focus of learning. Armstrong shows you how to empower your students with literacy skills for life. Note: This product listing is for the Adobe Acrobat (PDF) version of the book.
