I know everyone spent a lot of their time on these 5 part paragraphs. But to be truthful some of them have not be as excellent as others. In other words there were details that everyone in my class could improve on. One being proof reading, some students papers were poorly proof read and there were a lot of capitalization and "spell errors". To change this I would suggest that you have a parent read over your final draft to insure that it is proof read thoroughly. To improve on spell check errors people could use spell check but not click "OK" before even checking if spell check is doing what they want.
I think that the first time around I did better at proof reading and having the structure of the 5 part paragraph. My quotes might have been a little to long on some but for the most part I think I did fine on it. For each of my examples I probably should have put them in chronological order so that the paper would have flowed easier. Next time around I would change a few things but I would keep some others the same. I now know the format and I have a feel for the 5 part paragraph structure so I would be able to focus on my ideas more. I would try to accomplish more in shorter sentences to maximize the effectiveness of my paragraph.
your suggestion was pretty... obvious
ReplyDeletebut still it's true. A lot of the papers would have benafitted from proof reading.
