Writing with Confidence, a value-priced developmental writing work text, provides essential instruction and practice in basic writing skills at the sentence and paragraph level.

 

The first developmental text to incorporate high-interest, connected discourse subject matter in its exercises, Writing with Confidence retains and expands on this feature. Most chapters pursue a theme throughout the exercises–the dreams and premonitions surrounding the death of Abraham Lincoln; animal facts and oddities; the gustatory achievements of Diamond Jim Brady, the world's greatest eater; the voyage of the Kon-Tiki; and so on.

 

The text's six-unit structure includes 3 short chapters on the writing process, paragraph organization and development, the shape of the essay, all the rhetorical modes, and all the sentence skills.

 

The writing chapters are fully process-oriented, showing the development of a paragraph in six steps, from planning and outlining through drafting, revising, editing, and proofreading. Optional collaborative activities are provided in the margins of each chapter. This focus on writing is balanced with equal attention to sentence skills, not only for native speakers of English who need help, but for non-English-dominant speakers as well. ESL boxes provide help for students whose first language is not English, as do the two final chapters of the book, which address troublesome matters such as verb phrases, word order, articles, and prepositions.

 

The reading-writing connection throughout the book has been expanded, with sixteen additional readings in the last unit of the book, including several written by students. And the popular "Blueprints for Writing" found in the rhetorical chapters have been carried into unit-ending "Blueprints for Success," in which the most important concepts and practices are summarized in graphs and charts.

• Provides extended coverage on the most common sentence-level errors: fragments, run-ons, and comma splices as well as extensive coverage editing with Editing for Mastery excersise.
• Two chapters address the needs of ESL (English as a Second Language) students, as do boxes throughout the text highlighting concerns and insights for this growing segment of the population.
• One chapter (4), previews essay writing together with suggested writing assignments throughout the book for those students ready for essay-level work.
• Includes optional collaborative activities in every chapter to structure in-class group work and peer review.
• Quotations from famous writers in every chapter add inspiration and humor and break down students' anxieties about writing.
• "Tips" boxes in every chapter give simple, easy-to-follow instructions and guidelines for writers.
• Each unit concludes with a two-page visual summary of key points and topics for easy reference. "Blueprints" also show easy-to-read visual models of each paragraph mode, giving students a visual point of reference for structuring their paragraphs.

• Chapter on summary and response to assigned readings helps students develop skills of summarizing objectively and developing a response.
• More readings from student and professional writers, selected with an eye toward balance and a keen sense of topics in which students are interested.
• Visual prompts to inspire student writing and writing suggestions that follow each reading–both within the chapters and as additions in the last unit of the book.

  Brief Description

  

  Writing with Confidence , a value-priced developmental writing worktext, provides essential instruction and practice in basic writing skills at the sentence and paragraph level.

  The first developmental text to incorporate high-interest, connected discourse subject matter in its exercises, Writing with Confidence retains and expands on this feature. Most chapters pursue a theme throughout the exercises—the dreams and premonitions surrounding the death of Abraham Lincoln; animal facts and oddities; the gustatory achievements of Diamond Jim Brady, the world's greatest eater; the voyage of the Kon-Tiki; and so on.

  The text's six-unit structure includes 30 short chapters on the writing process, paragraph organization and development, the shape of the essay, all the rhetorical modes, and all the sentence skills.

  The writing chapters are fully process-oriented, showing the development of a paragraph in six steps, from planning and outlining through drafting, revising, editing, and proofreading. Optional collaborative activities are provided in the margins of each chapter. This focus on writing is balanced with equal attention to sentence skills, not only for native speakers of English who need help, but for non-English-dominant speakers as well. ESL boxes provide help for students whose first language is not English, as do the two final chapters of the book, which address troublesome matters such as verb phrases, word order, articles, and prepositions.

  The reading-writing connection throughout the book has been expanded, with sixteen additional readings in the last unit of the book, including several written by students. And the popular "Blueprints for Writing" found in the rhetorical chapters have been carried into unit-ending "Blueprints for Success," in which the most important concepts and practices are summarized in graphs and charts.

  Writing with Confidence, a sentence-and-paragraph level worktext, incorporates high-interest themes in its exercises and discourse while fully developing the writing process and fundamental writing skills.

   

  The text's five units include chapters on the writing process, paragraph organization and development, the shape of the essay, all the rhetorical modes, and all the sentence skills.  The writing chapters are fully process-oriented, showing the development of a paragraph in six steps, from planning and outlining through drafting, revising, editing, and proofreading.   For all students, but especially for visual learners, the popular “Blueprints for Writing” in the rhetorical chapters offer models and concrete guidance, as do “Templates,” which, new this edition, help students structure sentences and transitions.  This focus on writing is balanced with equal attention to sentence skills, not only for native speakers of English who need help, but for non-English-dominant speakers as well.

   

  This edition of Writing with Confidence is available as a Vangobook. The Vangobook edition includes the author's revisions for the ninth edition without the extraneous information or boxes. Created with the philosophy of quality over quantity, Writing with Confidence VangoBook can be read in less time than a traditional text. At approximately half the cost of a traditional book, this Vangobook edition will not break a student's budget.
