Collaborative Writing
Writing Consequences
www.teachingenglish.org.uk/article/writing-consequences
Each student adds one stage to the story then folds
the paper to cover the information and passes the
paper to the student on the right. The end result is a
mixed-up story that can often be amusing.
Two or more people jointly composing a text, contributing components to it
and participating in modifying, editing and/or reviewing the document.
The writing process becomes a recursive task, where each change
prompts others to make more changes.

Integrating Writing

Analía Ferraro
“like a lamb to the slaughter”
If someone does something or goes somewhere like
a lamb to the slaughter, they do it without knowing
that something bad is going to happen and therefore
act calmly and without fighting against the situation

Analía Ferraro
Genre
Sir Alfred Joseph Hitchcock (13 August 1899 – 29 April 1980), known as
“the master of suspense”, was an English film director and producer

Analía Ferraro
“I´ve got something to tell you”

Analía Ferraro
What does he tell her?

Analía Ferraro
And he told her. It didn't take long, four or five minutes at
most, and she stay very still through it all, watching him
with a kind of dazed horror as he went further and
further away from her with each word.

Analía Ferraro
How does she feel?

Her first instinct was not to believe any of it, to reject it all. It occurred to her that
perhaps he hadn't even spoken, that she herself had imagined the whole thing. Maybe, if
she went about her business and acted as though she hadn't been listening, then later,
when she sort of woke up again, she might find none of it had ever happened.
"I'll get the supper," she managed to whisper, and this time he didn't stop her.
When she walked across the room she couldn't feel her feet touching the floor. She
couldn't feel anything at all except a slight nausea and a desire to vomit. Everything was
automatic now down the steps to the cellar, the light switch, the deep freeze, the hand
inside the cabinet taking hold of the first object it met. She lifted it out, and looked at it.
It was wrapped in paper, so she took off the paper and looked at it again.
A leg of lamb.
All right then, they would have lamb for supper. She carried it upstairs, holding the thin
bone end of it with both her hands, and as she went through the living room,
she saw him standing over by the window with his back to her, and she stopped.

Analía Ferraro
What does she do next?

Analía Ferraro
At that point, Mary Maloney simply walked up behind
him and without any pause she swung the big frozen
leg of lamb high in the air and brought it down as hard
as she could on the back of his head.

Analía Ferraro
“All right, she told herself. So I've killed him”.

Analía Ferraro
What is her alibi?
Think of an ending
for the story

Analía Ferraro
"Get the weapon, and you've got the man.”

Compare your ending
and the real ending
of the story

Editing
ed·it

a. To prepare (written material) for publication or presentation, as by correcting,
revising, or adapting.
b. To modify or adapt so as to make suitable or acceptable

Summer Camp job application
Dear Mr/Madam,
I am writing in relation to the job advertisement for coordinator, which appeared in the local
newspaper I read this morning. I am twenty-four years old and I am studying organisation of events
at college.
I think I am the right person for the job because I have the skills and the ability to deal with groups
of different ages. As far as children are concerned, they are going to feel free to have fun and
spend enjoyable moments but at the same time they will be ready to obey they coordinator. I
made a seven-month course based on helping, taking care and leading groups. What is more, I
have some experience of working as a group leader. I am very reliable and I get on well with
people.
I would be available hole week from January to February. Then, from March to May, I will only be
available from Monday to Friday. At that time I will be doing a part-time job so I will not be here
during the weekend. I have no experience of working full-time but I have had summer jobs.
I am looking forward to your reply. I can be contacted at the above address or by mail at
anna@outlive.com.
Yours faithfully,
Anna

… the toolbox has!
Teaching has not really changed

Analía Ferraro
“If a child can´t learn
the way we teach,
maybe we should teach
the way they learn.”
Ignacio Estrada

Analía Ferraro
“The new education must teach the individual how to classify
and reclassify information, how to evaluate its veracity, how to
change categories when necessary, how to move from the
concrete to the abstract and back, how to look at problems from
a new direction—how to teach himself.
”Tomorrow’s illiterate will not be the man who can’t read;
he will be the man who has not learned how to learn.“
Psychologist Herbert Gerjuoy
of the Human Resources Research Organization
