    Unteaching the Five Paragraphs

    In the article “Unteaching the Five-Paragraph Essay”, Marie Foley argues that the five-paragraph formula restrains students from actively thinking. The five-paragraph structure is still used today because teachers are continuing to teach students the formula. The formula is said to be easier to teach to a class rather than to teach individual students different patterns of organization. Foley says that the formula being taught is easier on them to teach and to grade because of how crowded the English classes are. The formula contradicts most instructor’s basic goals because it is “depriving [students] of the pleasure of discovering new ideas”. Foley points out three reasons to end the formula. One being that it deters discovery. She states that students become too dependent on this structure once they have mastered it which makes it difficult to change writing styles. The structure “invites students to fill the five slots with what they already know” which prevents them from coming up with new ideas and exploring their minds. Foley also points out that the formula suppresses authenticity of the writer. Although the student goes through the motions of writing, “they seldom create something authentically theirs.” Students freely express themselves in writings such as personal letters and journals, but creates another title for themselves when writing an essay. Foley states that the five paragraph formula fails to portray the writer’s personality and is also unnatural in many ways. The structure is not used by professional writers because it weakens coherence, which is one of the most basic writing needs. It “limits students to a superficial, predictable level of coherence.” Foley argues that the formula hurts students rather than help them. It deprives them of the pleasure of writing and will not prepare them for academic and real world writing.…

    Two Descriptions Paper

    Immediately upon walking through the elegant double doors, the sweet aroma of butter envelopes the air around me causing me to rapidly salivate. The smell of nacho cheese accompanies the butter fragrance and I quickly begin to picture the many tasty treats behind the square concession area that is located in front of me. Candy galore is perfectly aligned behind the glass case further enticing my taste buds. A perfect temperature keeps me comfortable and makes me wish my home's temperature could be this perfect. One well groomed attendant generously overfills a striped bag with freshly popped popcorn and delicately hands it to a young boy standing next to his mother. Colorful posters line the walls around me, showing a glimpse into what lies behind the doors located down the hallways. The softness of the bench I am sitting on causes me to wonder if I am perched upon a cloud. Intermittent bursts of laughter can be heard coming from down the long hallways as well as in the lobby creating an atmosphere of endless fun. Smiling faces of children, teenagers, and adults quickly pass by me and I can hear the attendant quickly tear their perforated tickets as he happily says, "To the left, third door on your right."…

    Describe My Writing Process

    My writing process all depends on what I am writing. Some writings I can sit down and write the whole things and be done with it, while others can take me multiple days or even weeks. I normally sit down and work on it until I finish, get tired of it, or a hit a roadblock. I try to stop when I feel like I am writing the same thing over and over or if I feel like I just need a break. Most of the time, if I feel like I am writing and it is really bad, it is because it is and I need to take a break and come back to it later. Working on it in pieces normally works well for me, to break it up and take it a little bit at a time. I normally struggle when I do not like what I am writing about or when I run out of information to put in my writing. I…

    Description Paper

    As I sat on my steps in the front of my house, I could not help but notice how much it had felt like fall. You could smell the rain from the day before from Hurricane Isaac that had finally stopped after raining for a whole day straight. In addition, you could see the leafs changing to its beautiful red, orange and yellow colors and falling off the trees which of course were mostly landing on my car. While I was sitting there in the perfectly shaded area, I was reminded of how much fun being a kid when I saw a few kids chasing each other on their bikes. In addition, while sitting there I could hear many different things that were also going on. I could hear the sound of a hammer from my neighbors working hard, as they continued putting yellow siding up on their house. I could also hear dogs barking along with the sound of my other neighbor across the street mowing their lawn, which was green and brown from the hot summer we had. Along with all of that, at the end of my street I could see a loving mother comforting her child that was crying because he fell.…

    English 101

    Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday I trudge up two flights of stairs with the wind whipping at my face as my fingers feverishly click out the final text message I need to send before class starts. I walk into the warm, musty computer lab and sit at my usual spot with the view of the library through the tree limbs. I am always sure to come to English class because I know of my terrible history in this subject area. I have always struggled with English and before this semester had assumed that the college level class would be the death of me. As I read over the syllabus for this class it states that we will learn to understand writing assignments as a series of tasks and develop flexible strategies for generating, revising, editing, and proof-reading the assigned papers. I shuddered at the sheer thought of having to write five papers. Narrative, Evaluation, Profile, Position. These words might as well have been written in another language because I had no idea how to differentiate between them. Despite my fears, I believe this semester’s English 101 course has truly helped me develop my writing skills and advance to a more capable writer.…

    I thought all English writing classes were the same but I found out differently. I would get upset when I received a writing assignment. Because I have a difficult time expressing my thoughts down on paper. This class has changed me as a person and as writer. This course requires me to give my personal opinion and supply supporting evidences. I have a better understanding of writing now. I enjoy writing about subjects that are interesting to me. Also, this class has build up my confidence for writing where I can discussed my ideas. English 0111 suggests I look at all aspects of a situation instead of being closed minded. In other words, identify the characters, acknowledge the problem, and provide a reasonable conclusion.…
