Six Traits of Writing Questions:

• IDEAS: Do you have a clear WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, AND WHY? Have you added a snapshot for the WHO or the WHERE?
• VOICE: Are you writing like you are telling the story?
• ORGANIZATION: Do you have a clear beginning, middle, and end?
• CONVENTIONS: Are you using correct capitals? End marks? Quotation marks if someone is talking?
• SENTENCE FLUENCY: Do all of your sentences start the same way? Are your sentences short and choppy?
• WORD CHOICE: Are you choosing interesting words to replace boring ones?
