Summary of
Five Types of Writing Assignments
Type One
Writing that has no correct answer--or, if there is a correct answer, it is okay to be wrong. One draft.
Type Two
Writing that makes a point--has a correct answer or content. One draft.
Type Three
Writing that has content and focus correction areas. It is read out loud and reviewed by the author who then asks three critical questions: Does it complete the assignment? Is it easy to read? Does it fulfill the requirements set by the focus correction areas? One draft.
Type Four
Writing that is Type Three writing and has been read out loud and critiqued by another. Two drafts.
Type Five
Writing that is publishable, that can go outside the classroom without explanation or qualification. Multiple drafts.
All Types
For all types, skip lines. For Types One and Two, label the type on top left-hand side of paper. For Types Three and Four, list focus correction areas on top left-hand side.
