Do Now: Open document Casey shared with you, make a copy, and share it with him.
Do Next: Review pieces of evidence that you selected for your body paragraphs. You should use one piece of evidence for each paragraph. You already have three pieces, but if you’d like to do more, you absolutely can. Try to find a direct quote from the book that illustrates the scene, situation, concept, or character that you’d like to talk about for the first body paragraph. YOU NEED TO RECORD THE PAGE NUMBER. Quick Review: When using a direct quote, you need to cite where you got it from. Example: “He glared at Grandpa – a cold, hate-filled look – then reached out and slapped my sister across the face” (Lianke 55). The format must follow MLA: “Direct quote” (Authorlastname page#). Studio Time: Using the outline and your evidence, begin writing your first body paragraph. Your goal should be to complete your first body paragraph today. Exit Ticket: What did you accomplish today?
