Brainstorming and Clustering are good, helpful ways to find things to write about on a main topic. Today we did a couple or exercises on them. We used our free writing exercise to complete the big 6 questions: Who?, What?, Where?, When?, Why?, How? Then after, we did the clustering exercise. In clustering, you'd respond to the question, "what comes to mind?" That is just what widens your thoughts and takes you in many different directions. In relation to your topic of course. Clustering was fun.

  2. Brainstorming takes you to the back of your mind and let's your imagination run wild all over your paper. Go Brainstorming!

  3. I agree, brainstorming and clustering are helpful. I like what Catherine said about letting your imagination go wild on paper. I think that's an interesting way to explain about brainstorming.
