T opic Sentences
|
T: The topic sentences lets the reader know what
your subject is and what you are going to prove. If you are introducing a second or third
piece of evidence in the middle of the paragraph, then the T becomes a
transition.
|
I introduce Evidence
|
I: After the topic sentence, you should introduce
your evidence or reasoning.
|
E vidence
(this
could be a quote
or
logical reasoning)
|
E: Make sure you explain everything the reader
needs to know about your evidence or reason.
|
D iscuss (aka commentary)
|
D: You must discuss how the evidence is important
and how it proves your argument.
|
Each letter in TIED does not necessarily need its
own sentence; it just needs to be present in the paragraph.
Example from Lord of the Flies
Simon
makes it clear that the boys are no longer thinking in a logical way. After Sam
and Eric find the beast, he reasons out the probability of the beast they described.“Simon felt a flicker of incredulity-a beast with claws that
scratched, that sat on a mountain-top, that left no tracks and yet was not fast
enough to catch Samneric” (103). Simon's thoughts show how illogical this
so-called beast is because it really should have been more deadly if the boys' description had been true.
*HW: Use any of your Ch.8 questions OR one of your two discussion questions. Write and submit two TIED paragraphs.
