Writing Precisely: Using Lipograms as a Revision Strategy.
Razzano, Elaine
Exercise Exchange, v46 n1 p21-22 Fall 2000
Describes a writing exercise for middle schoolers to college students that encourages students to become more aware of language, especially word choice and audience in their writing, by writing lipograms (compositions from which all words containing a certain letter are omitted). Notes it can be used as a pre-revision activity, part of a poetry lesson, or for other purposes. (SR)
