Ideas and Content
Good writers set out with a main idea and a purpose in mind. The
main idea is the point they want to make. The purpose is how they will
make that point. Will the writing inform, persuade, or entertain readers?
Even a phone message has a main idea and a purpose.

Writing Ideas and Content
Mom,
Sam has a ride home
from soccer tonight
with Mr. Kim. He will be
here by 6.
Jamie
Main Idea How and
when Sam will get home
Purpose To inform Mom
Details Details support and develop your main idea.
This telephone note tells Mom who is driving Sam
and when he is arriving. These details give important
information. Details can also make writing lively and
interesting. Compare the two sentences below.
Our dog likes candy. (lacks detail)
Our collie Shadow cocks her head and wags her tail
when she hears a candy wrapper crinkle. (adds interest)
Strategies for Choosing a Topic and a Purpose
• Choose a topic that you can work with. For example, “Famous
Presidents” is too large a topic for a one-paragraph essay.
• Choose a purpose that fits your topic. For example, a funny
story would entertain readers, but an article on war might not.
FOCUS
Everything you
write should
support your main
idea. Details that
are off the subject
or unimportant
weaken writing.
