Combining
with
American
Classics
Students read passages from several American writers of
the mid-nineteenth century to focus on the passages’
sentence styles. Students try their hand at a number of
different interactions with the text—from rewriting and
combining underlying skinny sentences to imitating the
author’s style—all the while practicing the art of
sentence construction. Learning to write a variety of
sentence types is what sentence combining is all about,
and writing with a word processor (such as an
AlphaSmart device) is a natural fit with this editing
approach to learning. Word processing features allow
students to manipulate sentences freely and to see all
the changes they make as they make them.

Activities in Character Sketch II give students practice in
six strategies used in writing to develop a character:
description, setting, dialogue, interaction, action, and
narrative. Files are arranged to give students practice in
recognizing and imitating techniques in the order shown
above. One or more techniques for study and imitation
can appear in any one lesson. Students are encouraged
to use a variety of techniques in their own writing. All
files can be used by students working individually, in
pairs, or in cooperative groups.

What is basic to writing a character sketch? Students are
shown through modeling what these basic elements are,
and how to bring them together to reveal a character of
their own making, using appropriate evidence and
specific language.
