Another Writing Tool...

• Journal 12: Please record notes on the TIE Method.
• EQ: How can I incorporate quotes in a fluid way that uses the quote to build momentum rather than in a way that interrupts the text of my essay? 

TIE METHOD = Tag it, Introduce it, or Embed it.
• TAG: Tag the context to the end of the quote.
• Example: "I tell them [other revolutionaries] that I was also a terrorist yesterday, but, today, I am admired by the very people who said I was one," said Mandela in an interview on Larry King Live (King).
• Introduce: Introduce the context of the quote to lead into the text.
• Example: When Larry King interviewed Mandela about his past, Mandela explained a tough concept: "I tell them that I was also a terrorist yesterday, but, today, I am admired by the very people who said I was one" ("President Nelson Mandela One-on-One").
• Embed: Embed the quote inside of the context sentence.  
• Example: Mandela explained that he tells current revolutionaries "that I was also a terrorist yesterday, but, today, I am admired by the very people who said I was one" as advice about how to fight for equal rights (Larry King Live).

• A few things to note: 
• Notice in the Tag section that [the British] was added for clarity. You may add words for clarity within a quote by using the brackets too. 
• Notice that the introduced quote can use a colon because the first sentence before the colon is a complete sentence and introduces the next. 
• Notice that even though the quote is said by Mandela, he is not the source cited. The cited source must always correspond to an entry on the works cited page. 
• Journal 12 for West - Activity...Write a quote down using one of the methods. Then pass it around...only three methods to TIE it up now!
