Answer:
Since I don't know what specific paragraphs, here's a template
TOPIC:
Topic Sentence
-What is this paragraph
going to be about?
This is your thesis statement/the focus of what
your paragraph will be about. 1 sentence
Introduce Textual
Evidence
-set up what your evidence
is going to be
This section lets readers know about what is
happening in the story (prior to you citing your
evidence). This section should be no more than 2
sentences.
Cite textual
Evidence -insert evidence correctly
(quotations/page number)
Cite your evidence properly. This should be an
actual example from the text placed in quotes with
the page number (no more than 3 sentences)
Explain/ analyze
textual evidence
-What does this citation
mean?
- How does this
passage/citation relate to
my topic sentence/thesis.
THIS IS THE BIGGEST SECTION. You must
restate what the quote/citation means. Then you
write your analysis: How does this relate to your
topic sentence- explain your understanding of the
text in 3-4 sentences.
Concluding Sentence
-Conclude the paragraph and
give readers an idea to what the
next paragraph will be about.
Restate your main point and make sure it connects
to your topic sentence.
