Introduction

The past two days we've focused on writing in narratives, but sometimes we use quotation marks for other reasons like citations!

Citations are when you give credit to the author of the work. Sometimes we use quotation marks. Sometimes we paraphrase. But either way, it is important to give credit to the original author to avoid plagiarism, or copying without permission.

To Do:

Whenever you are answering questions (whether writing or verbal), give citations to prove your point. It makes your answer and opinion strong!

Introduction

This week, we have discussed how to make inferences when reading and supporting our thoughts with text evidence. Using the RACE strategy that we learned in Unit 1 will help us connect our inferences with text evidence.

RACE Response Restate the Question Answer Cite evidence Explain Use parts of the question in your answer Answer the question using your own words. Use the author's words and "quotation marks" to prove your answer Explain why your answer makes sense
