3. Defination Prewriting is the first stage of the writing process. It is important because it helps writers generate ideas for their eventual written pieces. Prewriting helps writers lay a solid foundation for their work, centering a piece's focus and organizing the order of things.

4. Purpose of PW Prewriting helps writers prepare a response to a prompt or stimulus. Through prewriting, writers can generate ideas and then explore their generated ideas. This enables them to narrow their focus in order to determine what specifically to write about in a first draft.

5. Example An example of prewriting is freewriting. Freewriting is an exercise in which writers generate ideas without specific structural rules or intentions. This is done in response to a prompt or stimulus. There are a variety of prewriting techniques and prewriting methods that writers use, including brainstorming, freewriting, list-making, mapping, and looping. By using one or more of these processes, writers are able to develop ideas for a piece of writing and determine which content best serves that writing and which is best left out of it.

6. Pre writing process Brainstroming / Listing (list making ) Free writing Mind mapping /Clustring Questioning Outlining

7. 1. Brainstroming Like freewriting, brainstorming involves generating ideas that come to mind but engages both the right and left sides of your brain. Some left-brain (linear) strategies include lists and outlines, question and answer, reporter questions, and cubing. Right brain (visual-spatial) strategies include idea maps, clusters, t-charts, and Venn diagrams. brain stroming = list

8. conti ...... When brainstorming, writers begin with a core idea and jot down thoughts and ideas in response to it. Everything that comes to a writer's mind that might be relevant to the piece that will be written gets noted down, without worrying about organization. This process may involve the creation of a web (a central idea in the middle of a page, with lines extending from it on which the writer adds associative thoughts) or other visual aids that help writers develop responses to an idea to help prepare them for draft writing.

9. 2. Free-writing Freewriting is a writing exercise in which an author writes about whatever they are thinking about, without stopping, for a prescribed about of time. It is similar to stream-of-consciousness writing. freewriting is an entirely open form of writing. However, freewriting occurs in paragraph form. The only constrictions in freewriting are that the writer must continue to write for a prescribed amount of time and write about whatever they are thinking.

10. Contii ... Freewriting is a common prewriting exercise. It allows the writer to get their ideas on paper without worrying about spelling, grammar, or even topic. The writer should not pay attention to typos or read over their work until the time is over. Generally, authors will begin with ten-minute freewrites. It is often used to generate ideas for other written works, like stories or poems. There are various forms of freewriting, including standard, focused, journaling, and character response.

11. Purpose of freewriting Freewriting can be used by authors to generate ideas for other writings, break through writer's block, and provide practice using different voices or in different genres. Free writing = Paragraph

12. Example The following is an example of a sixty-second freewrite: "The sun is bright today I need to clean the windows. How do people's hands get so dirty? Thre's a lot t clean in this house. Clean clean clean clean how much can i get done before we leave town? I hope that the weather is nice out there. There is no chance they will get me in the ater. I can't believe it's already october there are christmas things in the stores already. That stuff was there in September. Too early. The holidays will be good. So much better than last year."

13. 3. Mind Mapping Mind maps provide a structured way to capture and organize ideas and information. They help users to understand concepts by breaking them down into their component parts. The technique is used to develop new ideas, or to break down and better understand existing information. Whether developing new ideas or organizing existing information, mind maps help you see how information fits together. Mind maps provide an expansive and flexible structure to support your thinking.

14. Why it is important Mind Maps not only highlight important facts, but also show the overall structure of a subject and the relative importance of individual parts of it. They are great when you need to think creatively, and can help you to make new connections between ideas.

15. Examples Imagine a person who needs to give a presentation on a poem. They make that topic (the poem) the center of their mind map. Then, they add related subtopics, such as the speaker, the audience, the rhyme scheme, etc. From there, they may add relevant details to the mind map, and may even color code it to reflect how ideas go together.

16. 5. Questioning Questioning is an important prewriting technique that helps generate ideas, explore different angles, and clarify your understanding of the topic. Here are some ways questioning can be applied in the prewriting stage: Reflective Question( Ask yourself questions like: "Are my ideas well-organized and coherent?" Audience Questions Clarifying Questions Remember, questioning in prewriting encourages critical thinking, generates ideas, and guides your research. It allows you to explore different perspectives, clarify your understanding, and tailor your writing to effectively communicate with your audience.

17. 6. Outlining An outline is a plan for the paper that will help you organize and structure your ideas in a way that effectively communicates them to your reader and supports your thesis statement. Outlining is a widely used prewriting technique that helps you organize your thoughts, structure your ideas, and create a roadmap for your writing. It involves creating a hierarchical structure that outlines the main points, sub-points, and supporting details of your piece. Here's how outlining can be applied in the prewriting stage:

18. conti ..... Identify the Main Topic Determine the Main Points Subdivide the Main Points Add Supporting Details Arrange the Outline Review and Revise Additionally, outlining can serve as a reference point throughout your writing journey, ensuring that you stay on track and effectively convey your message.
