style and tone
Assignment: All Posts are due by Wednesday, midnight.
This week we took a look at style and tone and its variations. We are looking at what makes the audience feel the writing. We are also looking at how the author uses diction to control the tone. This is done differently based on genre. This week we will do some exercises to play with style and tone.
Part I:
1) Think of a writing theme. Draw a Mind Map with the theme in the middle.
2) Expand your map by coming up with the language/diction you want to use to get your tone across.
3 Further expand your map with images you may want to incorporate into your writing.
4) Consider writing a few lines down in bubbles around the map.
5) Stop and sit for a moment and try to feel the tone you want to use to write with. Sit with it for a second listening to the rhythm of the feeling in yourself.
6) Using the mind map, start to write using the map as a guide.
7) Read the work over aloud and make sure the music of the writing works for you.
Part II:
-Do not write an essay. The writing should be at least two paragraphs.
-Present your work to the class in a VT. Use your mind map in a video of yourself explaining the drawing and the diction sequence you brainstormed. Afterwards read your work to the class in a video.
Posting the Assignment:
Submit the work as a word document and a video of you reading your work to the voice thread here. Record your work using the video option in Voice Thread and upload a Word Document of your written version.
After reviewing the Voice thread directions for posting a Voice Thread Assignment, submit the following:
1. Film your video by using the Voice Thread Video feature (visuals and voice are required).
2. Upload a Word document of the writing/ images you are reading/presenting (also required).
- Post your writing, double spaced, 12pt Times New Roman font, of your own, original, creative writing based on our assignments this week as both video and written representation.
- End your piece with explaining which of the above technique(s) you applied. Give one example of how.
- Your work should be one submission with two slides.
