What do we notice about technical writing?


We were lucky to work with Mme Champagne again this morning as we continue to notice 
more and more about technical writing!
Today we read excerpts from a book with many technical writing features, Les monstres.
Mme Champagne chose this book for us because she knows we are currently working on creating our own monsters in Français... AND this book is also currently featured in our classroom library!


As Mme Champagne read from the text and showed us the pictures and pages, we continued to add to our
"What do you notice about technical writing?" chart. Our goal by the end of today's class was to ensure that each one of us had our voice heard at least once... and we got there! Great, work team!

Our next step with this chart is to take all of our amazing ideas and organize them into specific, technical-writing-features categories so we can better notice what good technical writers do. Our ideas will be posted in our classroom over the duration of our writing residency so we can be reminded of all the features
we should be including in our own writing.
