Digging Deep: What is Exposition and Expository Composition?

Today you will work in groups to do a deep dive into the various elements of Exposition: Description; Narration; Argument; Exemplification; Classification; Compare; Contrast; Process; Cause and Effect; Classification and Division; Definition; Argumentation;

1. First, we will read and react to the Course Description for Expository Composition.
pages 137 & 147. Read the description, and jot down words and concepts. Make connections with the Academic Competency Statement.

2. Next, you will browse several technological presentations sites. You may use Google Slides; Kami;  Powerpoint; Canva; Flipgrid; Prezi; Peardeck or some other tool. In fact, spend some time browsing the Top Educational Technology Apps  or those listed above to select an application that you and your team feel will cause you to expand your knowledge base, engage others, and showcase your reading.  If all else fails, you may use old school chart paper.

3. Once you and your team are assigned, you will decide on the best Presentation method. Then, you will read the material on your Mode of Exposition. Finally, you will craft a presentation that includes the name, definition, examples, images or video, what it looks like in writing, why it is helpful or what it helps the reader or writer to do.
