Workshop class size: 6 students
Workshop mode: Centre-Based
IS YOUR COMPOSITION LOOKING DULL?
Structure – Balanced
Balance is key when it comes to crafting a piece of writing that addresses the question requirements and is efficiently crafted within the time constraints of an examination. Do you know what is the focus of your story and are you spending time at the right places to score?
Content – Developed
“Develop the problem more. The solution is too rushed.”
Easier said than that. Let’s look at writing techniques that count and can be applied to your writing to up that content score.
Language – Rich
A well-balanced story with development of the content stops short without vivid descriptions to engage the readers. Bring in the LBM Write-away handbook and model examples sprinkled with rich vocabulary to finish polishing up your writing.
What will be covered in the workshop!
- PSLE Format and how to tackle the topic and question requirements
- Overall revision on plot structure and flow of a story
- Essential skills and elaboration strategies to develop content relevantly
Short practices after revising each part of the story plot to target specific writing techniques taught
