SUGGESTIONS to improve quality of writing:

  • Start with a question
  • Start with a quote
  • Start with a surprising statement
  • Identify genre (mystery? dystopia? adventure? non-fiction? romance?)
  • Establish setting of the story with descriptive language
  • Use powerful verbs in review when discussing plot or conflict
  • Describe character(s) with  vivid adjectives
  • USE LANGUAGE FROM THE TEXT-choose an important quote
  • Make recommendation for a specific audience-mention genre
