Try to make the tone of the paragraph fit the atmosphere of the story/movie by choosing appropriate and sophisticated words (use a thesaurus for better synonyms!!). Think about your personal reaction. If the tone of a character or the story is dark, avoid using light and jolly adjectives, and vice-versa.

Make sure to always answer the question “So What” when writing your analysis. It is very important to not reword your quote. You have to try to go deeper into the meaning/theme/characteristics by finding connections from the story/movie to other works you have read/watched before and possibly to your personal experiences. This will help you understand it better. You also need to make sure that the quote matches with what you’re trying to say about that character.

 The quote is very important in your paragraph because it is the example that enriches your text. Remember that the over-riding goal of your analysis is to demonstrate a new understanding of the text. The quote from your movie/story helps strengthen the text. Make sure to find the best quote in the book, that it is the strongest quote or the quote that strengthens your topic sentence (the main idea) the best. ]]> 2017-11-07 18:25:28 UTC https://padlet.com/tsoulosm/vjuoldzkk9wn/wish/204512321 Coherent writing jas1004 https://padlet.com/tsoulosm/vjuoldzkk9wn/wish/204512935 (Jasmine Ling and Anh Vi Mac)

Try to vary your sentence structure to make your analysis less monotone to read. In addition to fancy vocabulary, you should try to change the way your sentences are presented. (For example, appositive phrases are suitable for topic sentences) If you have very short and choppy sentences, consider mashing them together with help of additional clauses. However, don’t force yourself to add loads of unnecessary information to complete this, only vary your syntax when you already have long sentences (or can form long sentences) that you can alter around. ]]> 2017-11-07 18:30:40 UTC https://padlet.com/tsoulosm/vjuoldzkk9wn/wish/204515253 transitional words (gerry stecko) gerrystecko https://padlet.com/tsoulosm/vjuoldzkk9wn/wish/204516215 Make sure to pay attention when writing various sentences.
