Drafting the Fourth and Fifth Body Paragraphs of the Research Report

Tuesday 18 March 2014 for Periods 2, 5, & 6 and Wednesday 19 March 2014 for Periods 1 and 7

Devotional Text: Hebrews 12: 5-6

Students had until the end of the period to submit their second and third body paragraphs.

Mr. Stone emphasized the importance of including parenthetical citations while drafting. He also reviewed the nature of expository commentary, noting that students should not be expressing there personal feelings in this paper. Rather, they should use sentences of commentary to explain how the examples they provide fit the generalization they have made in the paragraph's topic sentence.

Students had most the period to continue drafting using laptop computers in the classroom. Students were expected to have completed the fourth body paragraph during this time.

Homework: Finish the fourth body paragraph if not completed during class time and complete the fifth body paragraph.
