The ABC's and Clouds?

We only had one class period this week due to the break last weekend! Two writing assignments were assigned to us last week that we were work on. It is funny, because I really do not enjoy writing one bit, but I actually enjoyed these assignments! With one assignment, we practiced writing paragraphs applying the CLOUD principle:

• Coherent
• Length
• Organization
• Unity
• Development

Our other assignment was to write a business memo applying OABC:

• Opening
• Agenda
• Body
• Closing

I liked these assignments because I feel like I really understand this part and I can see the improvements in my writing already. I will be sure to apply this in the future!

As well as the writing assignment, I loved our guest speaker. I had many questions about internships that she was able to clear up and made me excited to apply for some in the near future! In addition, I loved how she spoke about interviews. I feel that job interviews need to be executed very well to get a job. She was able to help me understand a little more about what I need to do.
