In the early stages of writing, brainstorming can help you generate ideas on a specific topic. You should spend ten to fifteen minutes brainstorming and jotting down any ideas about the topic. Whenever possible, try to write your ideas in Spanish. Express your ideas in single words or phrases, and jot them down in any order. While brainstorming, don’t worry about whether your ideas are good or bad. Selecting and organizing ideas should be the second stage of your writing. Remember that the more ideas you write down while you’re brainstorming, the more options you’ll have to choose from later when you start to organize your ideas. bailar viajar mirar la televisión la clase de español la clase de psicología cantar dibujar trabajar la clase de química la clase de biología Me gusta No me gusta Hola!
