The word "essay" comes from the Greek verb essayer, meaning "to try." Although you will be writing every class, not all writing assignments will carry the same weight:
You will be writing two (2) 3-4 page essays and a 2-3 page reflective letter using the following dominant patterns:
For each essay, you will go through the Writing Process: 1. During Invention (pre-writing), you decide what to write about and gather information to support or explain what you want to say. 2. During Arrangement, you decide how you are going to organize your ideas. 3. During Drafting and Revising, you write several drafts as you reconsider your ideas and refine you style and structure. 4. During Editing and Proofreading, you focus on grammar and punctuation as well as on sentence style and word choice. During proofreading, you correct spelling, mechanical errors, and typos and check your essay's format.
