It means ‘move away’.Step 2 Writing structure1. Ask students to think about how we can organize these ideas to describe the snowstorm. Tell them planning ahead carefully is very important to create a powerful piece of writing. We can make flow charts to help organize our ideas before we start writing.2. Point out when we want to write an article, first of all, we should choose a topic, we should decide what to write about. This time we are going to write about a snowstorm. There should be three main parts in such an article: Introduction, during the snowstorm, and after the snowstorm.3. Students talk about what should be written about in each part in groups.4. Show them some questions and say these questions can help them organize their ideas. 5. Do a pair work.
