Use the formatting and highlighting below to write your paragraph:
Topic Sentence: What are you going to prove in your paragraph? Make your statement.
Clarifying: Makes your topic sentence very clear and leads into your paragraph. Remember this answers the question “What do you mean?” about the topic sentence.
Place the Quote: What is happening in the text when the quote you have chosen to use appears? This should transition into the quote.
Quote: Write out the quote, be sure to copy it exactly and put it in quotation marks. Be sure you pick a good quote for your topic—one that will definitely prove your topic sentence.
Interpretation: This is your “smart talk.” What does this quote mean, and how does it prove your topic sentence?
Concluding: Conclude your paragraph with a closing statement that reiterates (restates) your topic sentence and neatly wraps up your paragraph—this should tie in with your topic sentence.
