Today we went time working on the intro paragraph to our synthesis paper. We did a musical chairs type activity where we got to grade one other person's intro. We got a little bit of help with quotations as well. We also had time to work on our first body paragraph.
Things to keep in mind: keep quotations proper, strong word choice, don't say explain a quote by saying "This quote says" or "the speaker is saying" etc. NO PERSONAL PRONOUNS!
Agenda:
scribe,
Video: tubechop; embed youtube with start and stop times
peer edit intro,
Things to remember: no personal words, no contractions, no hypothetical questions, no questions without answers, citations, lead-ins, etc..., expand your vocabulary
HW: finish first body, make corrections to intro, works cited,
