SPEAKING AND LISTE

The six steps of the writing process When we write we do more than just put words together to make sentences. Good writers go through several steps to produce a piece of writing. PRE-WRITING (THE PLANNING IN THREE PARAGRAPHS ) Choose a topic: (elige el tema que te resulte más fácil de desarrollar) Gather ideas: When you have a topic, think about what you will write about that topic (decide que vas decir sobre el tema). Organise: Decide which of the ideas you want to use end where you want to use them. Choose which idea to talk about first , which to talk next and which to tal about last. (Piensa que vas a decir en cada párrafo, lo que vas a poner primero, segundo, etc. DRAFTING Write :   Write your paragraph or essay from start to finish. Use your notes about your ideas and organisation. REVIEWING AND REVISING (EDITING 1) Review structure and content: Check what you have written. Read your writing silently to yourself or aloud, perhaps to a friend.

There’s no question, Dunbar agrees, that networks like Facebook are changing the nature of human interaction.  “What Facebook does and why it’s been so successful in so many ways is it allows you to keep track of people who would otherwise effectively disappear,” he said. But one of the things that keeps face-to-face friendships strong is the  nature of shared experience : you laugh together; you dance together;  you gape at the hot-dog eaters on Coney Island together.  We do have a social-media equivalent—sharing, liking, knowing that all of your friends have looked at the same cat video on YouTube as you did—but it lacks the synchronicity of shared experience. It’s like a comedy that you watch by yourself: you won’t laugh as loudly or as often, even if you’re fully aware that all your friends think it’s hysterical. We’ve seen the same movie, but we can’t bond over it in the same way.   With social media, we can easily keep up with the lives and interests of far more than
