Objective: SWBAT1. Identify three different types of sentence chaining and explain the connection between sentence chains and analysis. Parts of the Sentence: Topic and Comment • There are two parts to every sentence: a topic and a comment. • The topic of a sentence is the beginning of the sentence and tells what the sentence is about. • The comment is the rest of the sentence. It’s what the writer has to say about the topic.
Name _________________________________ Date _______________ Topic & Comment Identification Objective: SWBAT1. Identify three different types of sentence chaining and explain the connection between sentence chains and analysis. Directions: Work with a partner to identify the topic and the comment in each of the sentences below. Underline the topic and write ‘T’ next to it and double underline the comment and write ‘C’ next to it. • Miranda tells her father that she has very few memories of her life in Milan. • Caliban is afraid Prospero because he is sometimes tortured by his spirits. • Trinculo and Stephano attempt to usurp the island from Prospero. • Time and time again, Ariel fulfills each part of Prospero’s plan. • Ariel longs for freedom. • Freedom is important to Ariel. • Greed motivates Antonio to convince Sebastian to try to kill Alonso and Gonzalo. • This attempted murder was prevented by Ariel’s invisible presence. • Forgiveness wins out over revenge at the end of the play. • True love never dies.

Objective: SWBAT1. Identify three different types of sentence chaining and explain the connection between sentence chains and analysis. Sentence Chaining Practice: Substitution Now revise the analysis of your first body paragraph (last night’s homework) by incorporating either repetition, nominalization, or substitution. Step 1:Look over analysis vocabulary notes Step 2:Make sure you answer all the questions analysis should have (restate part of quote, Why? How?) Step 3: Identify topic(s) and comment(s) Step 4: Choose a sentence chaining technique (look over practice and notes) Step 5:Sentence Chain and re-read!!
Objective: SWBAT1. Identify three different types of sentence chaining and explain the connection between sentence chains and analysis. What is Sentence Chaining? • A writing technique used to improve style and to expand on ideas and analysis of a big idea. • Connecting the comment of a sentence to the topic of the sentence that comes after it. This helps you build on your ideas and expand your thinking. • It helps writers avoid repetitive dead end writing (like the Do Now) and helps the reader follow your line of thinking.
Objective: SWBAT1. Identify three different types of sentence chaining and explain the connection between sentence chains and analysis. Sentence Chaining Technique #1: Repetition • You’ve probably been told that repetition is bad. It’s true that you don’t want to overdo it! Over-repetition can make your writing monotonous. However, some repetition can be useful in helping you develop your ideas. • You can take a word from a comment and repeat it in the following topic. • Examples:
Objective: SWBAT1. Identify three different types of sentence chaining and explain the connection between sentence chains and analysis. Technique #2: Nominalization • Nominalization is a word that means taking a word that isn’t a noun and turning it into a noun. • Often this can be done by adding –ion, -ness, -ityto the end. So a verb like communicate can be turned into the noun communication. The word polite can become the noun politeness, or the word scarce can become scarcity. • Using nominalization, a verb or adjective in a comment can be turned into a noun in the next topic. Example:
Objective: SWBAT1. Identify three different types of sentence chaining and explain the connection between sentence chains and analysis. Technique #3: Substitution • To substitute, you can use a synonym for one of the key words in the comment, use a pronoun, or summarize the main idea of the comment. • Sometimes writers try to summarize just with the pronoun this. However, this often leave the reader wondering what this refers to. • When using this, it is best, most of the time, to follow it with at least a noun that indicates to the reader what you’re discussing. Example:
