Writing
UNIT 8 Planning a structure
In the examination you will have very little time to plan your answer, but your examiner will be
looking for a clear underlying structure in your response.
1 What do you think is meant by a 'clear underlying structure'?
O R G A N I S I N G IDEAS
The key to good, clear writing is simplicity. Do not start the introduction until
you know what you are going to say in your answer. Once you have thought of
some relevant ideas, you need to
organise them. If you produce an answer that
presents a list of ideas without development, you will lose marks.
2 What do you think is involved in organising your ideas?
3 What will happen to some of your ideas?
Spend ten minutes doing a 'for/against' activity (see page 84) on the following
topic.
Should parents be obliged to immunise their children against common
childhood diseases? Or do individuals have the right to choose not to
immunise their children?
Now organise your ideas in preparation for writing the answer (which you will be
asked to do at the end of this Unit).
