We know that movement is a very important part of signing. Choose one word that you have NOT learned how to sign so far. “Design” the sign so that it uses some kind of movement and then describe the movements that are involved in making that sign from start to finish. Make sure to use the types of words that describe movements in the unit: side-to-side, up-and-down, circles, touch, stroke, twist, flex, wiggle, separate, etc. [Note: it is okay for the sign you “design” to be different than the actual sign for that word.]

conflicting values are demonstrated between two different groups in animal farm. first, the farm animals value hard work. this is shown by them working late and working long hours at the request of the pigs. napoleon and the pigs, however, sleep late daily. furthermore, the animals value equality. this differs from the value of napoleon and the other pigs. instead of equality, they value only gaining power and maintaining their own privilege, which is demonstrated by their taking extra milk and sleeping in beds.

what: when quoting a source, use the author’s words verbatim, or word-for-word. this means you shouldn’t change any grammar, punctuation, spelling, etc. put quotations around the words to tell your reader where the quote begins and where it ends.

you also need to acknowledge the author. for example, if using mla format for your research paper, you should have in-text citations with the author’s name and page number listed at the end of each quote.

when: use quotations to provide concrete examples to support your claims. using direct quotations is a great way to build your credibility on the subject. it’s also a good idea to quote your source when the author states things in a powerful way. if you think he or she said it best, then use the exact words to share the ideas.

example: in the short story “a jury of her peers”, mrs. hale compares mrs. wright to her caged bird, saying “she—come to think of it, she was kind of like a bird herself. real sweet and pretty, but kind of timid and—fluttery. how—she—did—change” (glaspell).

paraphrasing

what: paraphrasing differs from quoting because you restate the passage in your own words. since you don’t use the author’s words, you don’t need to use quotation marks. however, you still need to acknowledge the author for his or her ideas.

when paraphrasing a text, you should communicate the full meaning of the text; don’t change the meaning. it can be a condensed version of the text, or it could end up being longer than the source it’s paraphrasing.

when: you use paraphrasing when you take notes, or explain a chart or diagram to someone. paraphrasing highlight the important parts of a larger text. it also allows you to simplify the ideas for your readers.

example:

original: “it was no ordinary thing that called her away–it was probably further from ordinary than anything that had ever happened in dickson county. but what her eye took in was that her kitchen was in no shape for leaving: her bread all ready for mixing, half the flour sifted and half unsifted” (glaspell).

paraphrase: as mrs. hales walks around mrs. wright’s home, she notices that the kitchen is in disarray as if she was in the middle of baking bread (glaspell).

here is the essay.

global warming. are we heading to a mini ice age era?

everybody have heard about the effects of global warming on planet earth. but in recent studies, many scientist explain that it is not the human being and his pollutants, what is affecting the planet. that only represents a small part. they make reference that what we are living on the planet right now is one of the many cycles of planet eart through its existence. because human life is too short, we do not stay on the planet too long to see its effects.

people everywhere should be concerned, but the clarion call is for the youngster to hear it.

some russian scientist has stated that the last mini ice age era was in the 1700's and people survived. they had a brutal winter in europe. even the thames river in london, partially frozen, but humanity knew how to keep on.

that is the lesson. humanity must take consciousness and prepare for a cold future, not a warm one.
