Lesson 2 – Extensive Writing & Journals

Extensive Writing (EWr)
We tried Extensive Writing (EWr) for the first time. How many words could you write?

EWr Log

We will use Google Sheets (spreadsheet) to keep track of our progress in extensive writing (EWr). This makes it easy me to follow your progress. It also makes it easy for you to see your own progress. You can generate a line graph from the spreadsheet.

2. Click on NEW.
3. Choose GOOGLE SHEETS. 
4. In the top left box, give your spreadsheet the title: full name + AW05 + EWr Log (e.g., Taro Suzuki AWO5 EWr Log)
5. In the top right corner, click on SHARE.
6. Share it with me. Use my email address (samuraitheologian).
7. In the A column, write the date of your first EWr.
8. In the B column, write the number of words.
9. In the C column, write the percentage (%) your partner understood.
