Write to the Point Organizer How does the writer use the subheadings?
ANSWER: to separate the main idea paragraphs
You will now practice filling out your Write to the Point using the piece Kentucky at Its Best.
As I reread the piece fill out each section of the organizer starting with the lead/intro triangle.

Write to the Point Organizer
Things to Keep in Mind:
It will be a little trickier when doing the main idea paragraphs because the writer didn’t use any subheadings.
Identify the main ideas of each paragraph (in the body) and write down a phrase or sentence in the boxes on the organizer.

Learn More about Main Ideas
Objective - Learn more about the qualities of main ideas:-- main ideas must connect to the purpose-- main ideas must be distinct and separate-- main ideas are “big” ideas that are supported by smaller, specific details
Let’s read the piece entitled Whirlpool of Death. Fill out a “Write to the Point” planner as I read.

Learn More about Main Ideas
What’s the purpose? What’s the writer’s point about tornados?
Do the title and introduction focus on the same purpose?
Do all the main ideas focus on ONE specific purpose/point?

So why Whirlpool of Death couldn’t be an American Idol Finalist??
Because the writer’s main ideas didn’t focused on ONE focused purpose!

Must’s for Creating Main Ideas
1) Main Ideas must connect to the writer’s point.
2) Main Ideas must be distinctly different.
3) Main Ideas must be “bigger” ideas that are supported by smaller, specific details.
Let’s look at some “Main Idea Pitfalls”! Specific details versus Main Ideas
