Nonfiction, perhaps more than any other type of writing, requires that you read critically. Make judgements about what seems accurate, biased, or just plain wrong when reading a news storyor an editorial. Try to discover a writer's intention when reading.
The desire to know what's happening and what people think about it is a powerful motive for readers. EXPOSITORY NONFICTION is factual and informative nonfiction writing. Articles, news stories, and editorials are expository nonfiction. You probably read some factual and informative writing every day, either on the internet or in a newspaper or magazine.

We will be doing a collective note taking activity to gain a collective understanding of 3 things: Expository Writing, 5 Section Essays, and Thesis Statements. For our next session together please bring an article or piece of text you have found that pertains to your space topic. You will need a piece of text to participate in the Quality Circle Written Discussion.
