Monday: Finishing your Paragraphs

Today we will work on finishing your paragraphs comparing two texts (#5) and (#6).

Be sure that you are using the frames from Thursday's class (posted below).

Also, here are some more to help you introduce your commentary after you have cited a direct quotation or a paraphrase from the text(s).  Choose from this list:

What Powell (or Montessori) is saying here is that _____________________________________.

What this means is that ___________________________________________________________.  

This is important because _________________________________________________________.

This shows the emphasis on structure (or freedom) because ______________________________.


ONE LAST NOTE:  Proofread your paragraph for punctuation, spelling and grammar errors before you turn it in!  Make sure you have correct citation format for each detail/example from the two writers.
