520 ## - RESUMEN, ETC.
Resumen, etc. Exploring Writing<br/><br/>Emphasizing both process and practice. Exploring Writing: Paragraphs and Essays will help students apply and advance their writing skills. Learning to write effective paragraphs and essays, master essential sentence skills, and read critically are turning points for student writers, these skills will prepare them to write essays in college and tackle many types of writing in the real world. Along the way, there are many small but important skills to explore and develop-using specific and concrete language, selecting good supporting details, writing an effective topic sentence, creating a convine-ing argument, organizing a paragraph in a way that best fits its purpose, and so on.<br/><br/>Four Bases<br/><br/>Exploring Writing asserts that four principles in particular are keys to ef-fective writing unity, support, coherence, and sentence skills. These four principles, or "bases," are highlighted on the inside back cover and rein-forced throughout the book.<br/><br/>Unity means seeing the whole as the sum of its parts; in an effective essay, students should make one point and stick to it.<br/><br/>Support stresses on the importance of using specific evidence to back up that point<br/><br/>Coherence focuses on the ways writers organize and connect this evidence-and how they transition between ideas.<br/><br/>Sentence Skills demonstrate an attention to the craft of writing and its elements; clear, error-free sentences maximize the effectiveness of the other three bases.<br/><br/>Countless Possibilities<br/><br/>In this text, I encourage students to see writing as a skill that can be learned and a process that must be explored While the four bases provide a founda tion, there are many important factors in writing effectively. Chapter 1 asks students to examine their attitude toward writing, to write what they know about or can learn about and to consider keeping a writing journal. Ap.<br/><br/>pendix B: A Writer's Journal gives them room to start recording ideas<br/><br/>Personal Discoveries<br/><br/>A writer's journey is as personal as it is practical, Exploring Writing ascribes to the belief that the best way to begin writing is with personal experience After students have learned to support a point by providing material from
