RAFT

Role: Question Mark
Audience: Sentence
Format: Why I am Important
Topic: How you need me when asking for something
Strong Verb: Answers

Dear Mr.Sentence,
I am writing you today to let you know how important I am for you to use when writing. When you are asking for something I have to be at the end of your sentence otherwise you may never get your answers. If I am not there at the end of your sentence the reader will never know you are asking a question. Without a question mark the question will go unanswered. If you end with a period or exclamation point then readers will think you are simply making a statement. So just remember when you are asking a question looking to get an answer you must end with me the question mark.

Sincerely,
Question Mark


What makes a capable writer?

A capable writer can be defined so many different ways depending on who is reading the writing. Obviously someone who is trained in writing will hold higher expectations for deciding if someone is a capable writer then maybe a teen aged reader. Now I am sure there is an exact definition of a capable writer but I am going to write my opinion. I feel that a capable writer goes through the RAFT process. A capable writer knows who they are representing, who their audience is, they format in which they choose to write, and there topic. Each part being equally important. A capable writer has the research and knowledge to back up what they are writing about. A capable writer writes with diction and fluency. A capable writer looks for any grammatical errors. A capable writer organizes his or her thoughts before putting pen to paper and constantly evaluates his or her writing throughout the entire process.
