Chapter 5 & Chapter 6

In class today, we performed exercises in Chapter 5 and Chapter 6. Identifying the topic sentence, support, subject and focus. We were also able to learn different types of introductory methods which include a direct statement of the thesis, background, definition of terms, quotations, a shocking statement, questions and a combination of two or more methods on this list. I think these hands-on exercises helps us to better understand and absorb the material.

    Doing the exercises really helps us to understand more about writing the essay.

    I like that we go over everything as a class and complete the exercises out loud because they do really help us better understand the material.
