Six Traits of Effective Writing

What Are the Six Traits?


Ideas Good writing has clear ideas, a purpose, or focus. It should have specific ideas and details.

Organization Writing should have a beginning, middle, and an ending and be well organized and easy to follow.

Voice Your writing should connect with your audience, fit your purpose for writing, and reveal your voice.

Word Choice Good writing has specific nouns and verbs and strong words that deliver the writer's message.

Sentence Fluency Sentences should vary in length, with a variety of sentence beginnings. The writing should flow smoothly from sentence to sentence.

Conventions Strong writing is edited for grammar, punctuation, capitalization, and spelling so the writer's ideas easily understood.
