Purposeful and Transparent
This activity encourages students to pay attention to details. In their everyday lives details can determine outcomes in important situations, clarify information, or explain situations.

Contextual
Writing is part of the GED test as well as being part of everyday life. Focusing on detail allows students to write with a specific purpose.

Building Expertise
The writing assignment allows students to gain experience using a graphic organizer to develop a well written paragraph. The writing process becomes automatic as students use the steps to write one paragraph or multiple paragraphs.
