A. Activating Prior
Knowledge
-Ask the students how they organized their thought for a school project.
-Share an anecdote about a student who used outlining to organize their
thoughts for a school project.
Once upon a time, in a bustling middle school classroom, there was a
student named Alex. Alex had a big assignment: a persuasive essay on the
importance of recycling. The topic excited Alex, but the thought of organizing
all those ideas into a coherent essay felt overwhelming.
That’s when Alex’s teacher introduced the magic of outlining. Alex sat down
with a blank sheet of paper and followed these steps:
1. Choose a Topic: Alex picked recycling as the central theme.
2. Identify Main Ideas: Alex brainstormed key points: environmental
impact, economic benefits, and community involvement.
3. Organize Main Ideas: Alex arranged these points logically, starting
with the most compelling argument.
4. Add Supporting Details: Under each main idea, Alex listed
supporting evidence: statistics, personal experiences, and quotes from
experts.
5. Use Short Phrases and Symbols: Alex used bullet points and
symbols (like asterisks) to keep things concise.
The result? A well-structured outline that guided Alex through the writing
process. Each paragraph had a purpose, and Alex knew exactly what to
include. Plus, the outline prevented Alex from going off-topic or forgetting
crucial points.
As Alex wrote the essay, the outline served as a trusty roadmap. Alex
referred back to it, ensuring that every paragraph contributed to the overall
message. When it came time to revise, Alex easily spotted areas for
improvement.
In the end, Alex’s essay was clear, focused, and persuasive—all thanks to
that humble outline. And so, Alex learned that organizing thoughts isn’t just
for neat freaks; it’s a superpower for effective communication! 🌟
Remember, whether you’re writing an essay, a story, or even a shopping
list, outlining can be your secret weapon. Happy writing! 📝✨
B. Establishing the Lesson
Purpose
Share an anecdote about a famous Filipino writer who used outlining to plan
a stories
Nick Joaquin, a highly esteemed Filipino author, was known for his
meticulous approach to storytelling. He believed in the power of structure and
organization. When he wrote, he often began by creating detailed outlines for
his novels and short stories. These outlines served as roadmaps, guiding him
through the plot, character development, and thematic elements.
One of his most famous works, “The Woman With Two Navels,” was
meticulously planned using an outline. This novel delves into complex
themes such as identity, colonialism, and personal struggles. By carefully
plotting out the narrative, Joaquin ensured that each scene contributed to the
overall impact of the story.
Joaquin’s dedication to outlining allowed him to weave intricate tales
that resonated with readers. His commitment to structure and planning
exemplifies how thoughtful preparation can enhance the creative process
and lead to powerful storytelling.
If you’re an aspiring writer, consider taking a page from Nick Joaquin’s book
(pun intended!) and explore the benefits of outlining your own stories. 📝✨
