Find a Non-Paragraph

Find a Non-Paragraph

Look over the paragraphs that other students selected in the "Find a Paragraph" blog entry below.

Find one that you think is NOT a paragraph or that you think is a pretty poor one. Critique that paragraph according to the criteria we discussed in class -- topic sentence, unity, development, completeness, coherence (transition).

Be complete but kind in your critique. If you can learn to objectively evaluate other people's writing, you will become better at evaluating your own writing. Hey, better you than your professor. ;-)

Post your evaluation by Monday, January 24. Remember, THE CRITIQUE ITSELF NEEDS TO BE A PARAGRAPH.
