11/28 & 11/29: Outlining Solution

Here's how to outline the solution section

1. Start by Separating your notecards into solution and problem piles. (hopefully you've already used the problem cards by now, so you can put those back in your back pack, you won't be re-using any cards).

2. Create a flow chart that looks like this:

Solution

One Solution Another Solution The Best Solution

3. Once you have three possible solutions: Create three piles out of your notecards for those solutions. IF you don't have any cards for a pile, that's fine, that's research you still need to do. IF you have more than two notecards in a pile. Separate the cards into two separate piles, making two paragraphs out of one. (Example: One solution: college. ---> One solution College: Financing and Getting In).

4. Now you're ready to do the outline (See COMMENTS).

We also talked about doing the interview. Make sure you get a handout that outlines the before, during and after steps of the interview. The main point of the interview is to fill in the gaps, the stuff you couldn't find in any of your other sources. If you have any paragraphs that only feature one detail OR one source, write a question to put in that paragraph.

YOU CAN DO THIS!!!

now, let's get to work!
