Writer's Voice
I have used this PowerPoint with seniors in high school whenever an essay assignment zeroes in on VOICE. Students are often confused between an author's voice a and a student writer's voice. This PowerPoint explains VOICE as it includes 8 basic elements that make up voice. The lesson gears students to an understanding of VOICE in not only fiction, but also in their own writing. Examples are used throughout to facilitate understanding.

Student Example - Narrative
We use this as an example essay to introduce how to appropriately edit and revise a narrative. Students are given a checklist and a copy of this narrative.
First the students edit and revise by themselves. Then we share what they found and ADD, we always have to add more to what they initially edit and revise. It is nice to have a generic sample first because students tend to be more critical when it isn't their friends paper.
