OpenStudy (harman.singh):

What is your writing about?

OpenStudy (itrymath):

The Dolls House

OpenStudy (itrymath):

its pretty much a crtical response

OpenStudy (harman.singh):

I have not read the text though so not exactly sure what you are writing about :/

OpenStudy (itrymath):

Its a short story... basically here

OpenStudy (itrymath):

scroll down to summary

OpenStudy (tackopp):

Hey, how do you ask questions?

OpenStudy (itrymath):

easy

OpenStudy (harman.singh):

Alright so I read the 'Summary' up to the part where it asks to sign up. What exactly do you need my help with?

OpenStudy (itrymath):

this is a critical responds on how the kids are abused etc

OpenStudy (harman.singh):

Yes, I understand that but what do you need my help with?

OpenStudy (itrymath):

does it look detailed enough

OpenStudy (itrymath):

im mean so far at least

OpenStudy (harman.singh):

I am guessing what you have written so far is the introduction of the essay. Looking at it, it seems detailed enough to me. I would just fix the grammatical errors to make it more fluent.

OpenStudy (itrymath):

alright

OpenStudy (itrymath):

@harman.singh

OpenStudy (itrymath):

this is a complete summary please read it ... it would make this easier and here is the revised document with 1st paragraph

OpenStudy (harman.singh):

I had a read of the paragraph but its a bit difficult to understand what you are trying to say in the first couple of sentences. I would suggest re-wording it so its clear to understand and straight to the point.

OpenStudy (itrymath):

@harman.singh okay i revised it but did i cite the source correctly ?

OpenStudy (harman.singh):

Are you referring to the quote in the paragraph?

OpenStudy (harman.singh):

Btw, great improvement in the paragraph compared to the previous one :)

OpenStudy (itrymath):

Yes sorry i was late.... watching suits ... but um yes that was a quote... did i put it in proper form? @harman.singh

OpenStudy (harman.singh):

I wouldn't recommend putting the quote as one sentence. You should only include a part of the quote in your sentence with explanation. Have a look at the first dot point in this link for example - https://siwordsmiths.wordpress.com/2012/04/22/essay-writing-series-embedding-quotes/

OpenStudy (itrymath):

@harman.singh changed up the quote

OpenStudy (harman.singh):

What did you change in the quote? looks pretty similar to me

OpenStudy (itrymath):

well i shortened it @harman.singh “The fact is that school the Burnell children went to, wasn’t what their parents intended.”

OpenStudy (harman.singh):

Did you read the example in the link I posted? You need to add an explanation to your quote and relate it back to the text.

OpenStudy (itrymath):

I did

OpenStudy (itrymath):

how doesn't it relate to the story tho

OpenStudy (itrymath):

“The fact is that the school the Burnell children went to, wasn’t what their parents intended because they had no other choices, it was the closest near home”

OpenStudy (itrymath):

revised quote

OpenStudy (harman.singh):

|dw:1479354252841:dw| See how they have inserted the quote into a sentence without having the quote as one single sentence? I recommend doing the same. Also, have a look the way they have interpreted it. It makes it more fluent. Source: Wordssmith

OpenStudy (itrymath):

i cant come up with anything on shortening the quote ....

OpenStudy (itrymath):

"The parents sent them off to a school of differences, their was no choice."

OpenStudy (harman.singh):

Alright, just use that quote as your sentence but make sure you explain what you mean by the quote in the next sentence.

OpenStudy (itrymath):

OpenStudy (itrymath):

so i made revise a little but i think i made it super good, tell me what you think ...@harman.singh

OpenStudy (itrymath):

@harman.singh

OpenStudy (harman.singh):

Yes, it looks pretty good now :)

OpenStudy (itrymath):

OpenStudy (harman.singh):

Most of the paragraph looks good. I like how you have given specific examples from the story and referred to them in the text. The vocabulary and grammar is also quite good. Just one thing, you should not include the word "quote" in their. Instead, just write the quote without saying its a quote.

OpenStudy (itrymath):

oh okay I thought it would be cool that i added that lol

OpenStudy (harman.singh):

We usually only say the word "quote" when speaking. When writing, we only need to use the quotation marks. Just for future reference :)
