ESSAY PREP

• Journal 25: 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: "But Rooineks [the British] are not designed to be permanent heroes," mentioned Peekay as he realized that his stitches would not bring him lasting respect (37).
• Introduce: Introduce the context of the quote to lead into the text.
• Example: After Peekay faked his falling out of the tree, he reflected: "But Rooineks are not designed to be permanent heroes" (37).
• Embed: Embed the quote inside of the context sentence.  
• Example: Peekay reflected that "Rooineks are not designed to be permanent heroes" as he realized that his troubles with the Judge were far from finished (37).

• Punctuation Notes: 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. Also, notice that the introduced quote can use a colon because the first sentence before the colon is a complete sentence and introduces the next. 
• Activity...Write a quote and its context from Ch.11 and use one of the methods to TIE them together. Then pass it to have someone else use a different method. 

HW: Complete your rough draft by Monday. (Fishbowl #2 on Tuesday.)

• Some check points for the essay:
• Don't forget to parenthetically cite your quotes corresponding to your Annotated Works Cited page.
• Don't forget to use a CAB thesis,
• and TIED paragraphs,
• and the TIE method for integrating quotes,
• and MLA format.
