    The Pre-Writing

    Process
    Learning Competencies

    I can paraphrase/ explain a


    text using one’s own words.
    To fully understand the process
    of writing, follow each of the
    steps in this activity:
    1. Jot down the different terms or
    ideas think of.
    To fully understand the process
    of writing, follow each of the
    steps in this activity:
    2. Reread what you have written
    and decide which of the ideas are
    connected to each other. Group the
    similar ideas in one category. You
    can use a graphic representation.
    To fully understand the process
    of writing, follow each of the
    steps in this activity:
    3. Examine the ideas that you
    mapped out and identify which
    ideas are broad and/or general
    and which ideas are specific.
    Separate the broad topics from
    the specific ones.
    To fully understand the process
    of writing, follow each of the
    steps in this activity:
    4.Understand why you are
    writing the paper. And
    evaluate what you know about
    the topic.
     
    To fully understand the process
    of writing, follow each of the
    steps in this activity:
    5. Think of the people who will possibly
    read your paper. Try to envision who they
    are, what they need to know about your
    topic, how they feel about your topic, what
    their attitudes are toward your topic, and
    what would be the reasons they would read
    your paper.
     
    Brainstorming
    “Brainstorming” means thinking of as many
    ideas as possible in a short amount of time.
    Write down your ideas so that you don’t
    forget them.
    Write down everything that comes to your
    mind; don’t worry about sorting out “good”
    and “bad” ideas.
    Don’t worry about spelling or grammar.
    Steps in Choosing a Topic:

    1. Brainstorming- When you


    responded with ideas and concepts
    related to broad concept that your
    teacher gave you, you were already
    generating possible topics for your
    paper. For example of possible
    topics:
    Example of Brainstorming
    Topic: What would I do with one million
    pesos?
    Travel--Europe, Asia, S. America
    Pay off our house
    Share--donate to charities
    Buy a lot of books!
    Invest/save and let the interest grow
    Brainstorming
    For example of possible topics:
    •Double standards for women
    •Discrimination against gays and
    lesbians
    •Marital rape
    •Homosexuality
    Steps in Choosing a Topic:

    2. Free writing- Aside from


    brainstorming, you can also free
    writing to generate ideas. It is
    similar to brainstorming in that
    you just write any idea that
    comes to your mind.
    Example of Free Writing:

    Topic: Describe the most beautiful


    place you’ve seen.
    I remember riding on a camel
    in the desert in front of the
    pyramids of Egypt. The pyramids
    were so huge, like pictures but more
    majestic than any picture. Here was
    a moment in time captured forever.
    Steps in Choosing a Topic:

    4. Clustering- The other step that


    you did in the activity is called
    clustering, or ballooning, or
    mapping. This technique provides a
    graphic representation of your
    ideas, allowing you to visualize the
    connections and/or relationships of
    your ideas.
    Example Mapping/Clustering
