Teaching Writing: Analyze and Contrast
TEACHING WRITING: COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS
Are squares A and B the same colour?
This optical illusion is a good symbol for this English writing lesson. Sometimes, we have to learn to see what is not obvious through critical thinking.
PURPOSE OF WRITING ACTIVITY
This English writing exercise helps ESL students learn and practice multiple skills including comparisons, contrasts, analysis and abstractions.
Students will watch a short soft drink commercial which describes aspects of life in two generations and then complete a comparative analysis.
