R.A.F.T.S. Writing
R.A.F.T.S. is a writing strategy we use in class to help explore different purposes of writing. The acronym stands for Role (Who is the author of this piece?), Audience (Who will be reading this writing?), Format (How will the writing be organized?), Topic (What is the main idea of this writing?), Strong verbs (What is the purpose of this writing?). Below are several links to explore to help students master this strategy.
