How we organise our writing
It is now time to consider our writing and how we organise this? Is it necessary to plan our writing or should we just start straight away without any planning? Why do you think this? You need to state your opinion and then back this up with 2-3 reasons why you think this.

I think you should plan because... 1. You would be sitting in class doing nothing because you didn't write down any ideas first. 2. Sometimes you can get more marks. 3. Its a good way to get all your ideas down quick so you don't forget them.

ReplyDeleteI think that planning gets are ideas on paper so we can check back on it while writing. It can also give the teacher an idea of what were thinking. Another benefit if we plan we are less likely to forget an idea than if it was stalled in our mind. You will also know exactly what you are doing rather than have to think half way through your writing.

ReplyDeleteI think that planning helps by writing it down and then if you forget something, you can look back at it. It also gives the teacher an idea what we are thinking and you check back you have all of the plans you did. Also you won't need to think when you are halfway of the story/writing.
I don’t think you need to plan because……………….
ReplyDelete- It is bad for the environment. If you don’t plan on paper and just in your head then you are using less paper which means people don’t need to make as many books so less trees get cut down.
- If your notes are to brief or don’t make sense you may forget what it means
- Your ideas flow better as you write

ReplyDeleteI think it is important to plan because if you forget you can look back to remember. Also it gives the teacher an idea of what you are thinking.
It also helps you sort it into paragraphs to help you write.
I prefer planing before writing because,by planing it helps to gather required information before you start writing.Planing helps to save valuable time and you don't have to wait for ideas to pop up in your head.

I think it goes both ways because if you plan you can come back to your ides but it also kills trees P.S YOLO :D
