WHAT ARE SMALL MOMENTS? A seed idea mini lesson
TIME TO TAKE NOTES! GRAB YOUR WRITER’S NOTEBOOK!
WHY DO WE USE SEED IDEAS FOR SMALL MOMENTS? - Seed ideas play a movie in our minds as we remember them. - They are so vivid, we can recall every detail, almost as if we are re-living the moment.
- When we add those details in to our writing, we are creating a movie in the minds of our readers as well.
- Seed ideas require detail, focus and purpose- All of these make good writing.
Meaningful moments are moments that have impacted
us and our lives.
TIME TO BRAINSTORM! In your writer’s notebook, please start by making a list of moments in your life that are meaningful to you. You will take a picture of this list and turn it in today for your assignment. Here is the start to my list:
- The day I got adopted. - The day I found out I was going to have Macie. - The day I got engaged. - When I performed at Disney World. - The day my cousin Todd died. *Notice how I am just making a list here… I am not adding detail yet. Just brainstorming a list!
