Novel Essays: Homework check –you were to complete the below for homework
Essays: We will work on making sure we integrate quotes correctly. We also discussed this when we did our paragraphs on “On The Sidewalk Bleeding”. Each body paragraph should have 2 quotes. These are the quotes that you would have completed in the “Say Mean Matter” document.
*In addition to looking at incorporating quotes, you should also see if you can use any transitional expressions that will help the flow and cohesion of your writing.
