From Blog to Essay

Students read an informal blog-style paragraph and rewrite it as a polished formal essay paragraph suitable for a school report. To revise effectively, learners replace every instance of in back of with behind and adjust vocabulary, tone, and sentence structure to sound more academic. This activity enhances editing skills, encourages attention to voice and word choice, and builds students’ ability to transform informal writing into formal prose. It strengthens understanding of register while reinforcing grammar and clarity.
