Holocaust-Expositroy Writing

This year we will be doing a lot of different kinds of writing ranging from narrative writing to expository writing.  While all are equally important, we will be spending a lot of time on expository writing.  Expository writing is a type of writing where the purpose of  is to inform, explain, describe, or define the author's subject to the reader in a well thought out and logical way.  We have done a little bit of expositry writing this year, and I suspect you have done some in the past so this type of writing is nothing new to you.  This assignment will not have a lot of guidelines since I want to know what yo know about the writing process and expository writing.


Directions:
Reade the  prompt below and write at least three paragraphs to describe, explain, inform, define and support your point of view.

   Prompt

 Imagine Erica, Peter or Daniel's mother are still alive. Pick one of the three characters and ask yourself, "What questions would you like to ask the character?".  Explain why your questions are important to you. Tell the character what you've learned and how you feel after hearing their story. If you can relate her experiences to any conditions facing your generation, explain those connections. Describe for the character what you will do to teach future generations the lessons you've learned from studying the Holocaust.

Hints: Be sure to use the writing process  so your writing can be the best it can be.  We've used it a couple times this year (letter to Mr. Catton), but I'll give you a few links to help you out.
