This article gives an essential way to teach students to start writing through students’ working group in generating ideas and thoughts in a writing class. Basic strategies to teach writing in seven steps are comprised of 1) brainstorming, 2) free writing, 3) questioning, 4) ordering and grouping, 5) content networking, 6) drafting, and 7) writing exercise. Brainstorming is a thinking concept of unvoiced mulling, sorting, comparing, speculating, applying, analyzing, and so on, that leads their students to new perspectives, understanding, questions, reactions about course material. Free writing is an individual student’s activity for getting their students’ ideas and thoughts from their heads and write down on to writing paper. Questions approach of a subject/topic that is started by thinking about a subject/ topic in terms of each question and ask questions starting with each of these question words that students want to explore. Ordering and Grouping is a way to show relationships between ideas and thoughts and are parts of ideas’ generating and parts of thoughts’ organization. Content Networking is similar to ordering and grouping methods in that it shows relationships between ideas and thoughts. However, content networking is most effective when examining application, synthesis, evaluation, and creativity of relationships. Drafting will lead students to feel “Ready to Write” their ideas and thoughts in something closer to the assignment or paper form. Importantly, the tough moments of really “Writing” begin at this point.
