The first element of the 6 + 1 Traits Ideas and Content The first element of the 6 + 1 Traits

What are ideas and content? The ideas and content is what you have to say - the reason for writing your paper. Everything about your writing begins with that message. -Northwest Regional Education Laboratory

So where do I get these ideas? Use the ideas that are floating all around you! Personal experiences Something you know a lot about Something important to you An idea from your imagination Something that interests you Now let’s do some brainstorming!

Clear As Mud? Once you have chosen a topic ask yourself a few questions. Is my topic too LARGE for me to do a good job? Do I know enough about my topic to share it with someone else? What is the point of my paper or story?

Were our topics too large? Is my topic too LARGE? #1 RULE Keep it small If your topic is too large the reader will get lost. Animals Birds Eagles How the Eagle Became the National Bird Were our topics too large?

Do I know enough about my topic? If my topic is How the Eagle Became the National Bird Do I know a lot about that topic? Do I know details that most people wouldn’t? If not, do I know where to find interesting details?

What is the point? Keep in mind Know your audience. Have a clear plan for writing. Answer any question the reader may have before they have to ask.

Put It All Together Choose a topic that you will enjoy. Narrow your topic to a controllable size. Add interesting details that may surprise people. Have a clear plan for writing.
