LTW-ANI charts

Howdy folks! This post is about ANI charts. ANI charts are the first step in LTW to creating a persuasive essay. In Challenge, at the beginning of the year you do not need to have many points on the chart, but later you will need to have more and more and more...

LTW stands for Lost Tools of Writing. It looks like this:

Cool isn't it? There is a student version and a Tutor version. Choose accordingly.
This is an ANI chart. ANI stands for Affirmative, Negative, and Interesting. To use the ANI chart, you first must create an ISSUE from the book that you had to read for school. There is a different book every 3 weeks. For Example: You have read the book Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone. An issue from that could be: Whether Harry should have accepted the wizard duel challenge from Malfoy. On the ANI chart you would put under A: Reasons he should have, N: Reasons he shouldn't have, and I: Any random things from the book that might help you write the paper later.

I hope this post was helpful in creating your ANI chart. Leave any questions in the comments and I will answer them best I can! Until next post!

    1. Brian, I'm glad you found it helpful. Is there any CC thing that you need help with that you'd find it helpful for me to post about? I haven't been very active on the blog, 'cause I don't know what people want posted.

  2. Will they be using this writing curriculum for all the books read or will they be using Words of Aptly Spoken also? And is LTW just teaching how to write a persuasive essay? Thank you!

    1. Hey there! I can't do your homework for you, but here are a few tips that might help you come up with an issue.

      1. Underline and annotate as you read. What catches your attention? What do you find that is thought-provoking?

      2. Are there any themes or motifs you notice?

      3. What are some actions the characters take that you agree with? What are some you disagree with?

      4. What are some issues that the characters discuss that you feel strongly about?

      Hope this helps!
