MOST IMPORTANT FOR US
1.
borrowing words from a story , putting them
into your paragraph,
essay
Borrow words from a text. Incorporate the words into our writing.
Include the words in our sentence.
For example.
Definition writing on Peking duck
Wikipedia- look up
PLAGIARIZED plagiaris
Peking duck is
a dish from Beijing (Peking)[1] that has been prepared since the Imperial era. The meat
is characterized by its thin, crispy skin, with authentic versions of
the dish serving mostly the skin and little meat, sliced in front of the diners
by the cook. Ducks bred especially for the dish are slaughtered after 65 days and seasoned before being roasted in a closed or hung oven. The meat
is often eaten with spring onion, cucumber and sweet bean sauce with pancakes rolled around the fillings. Sometimes pickled radish is
also inside. Crispy aromatic duck is a similar dish to Peking duck and is
popular in the United Kingdom.
All plagiarized – copied without permission, without showing the
source
“thin, crispy skin” –
incorporate a short quotation into my sentence
Peking duck is well-known for its tasty flavours and “thin, crispy
skin”
(Wikipedia.com). It is a very popular dish in China.
“Ducks bred especially for the dish are slaughtered after 65 days
and seasoned before being roasted in a closed or hung oven.”
NO GOOD, TOO LONG, NOT INCORPORATED INTO YOUR WRITING
Quote only a few words at a time- 1,2,3,4 words
citation – showing where the borrowed words come from
Plagiarism – copying someone else’s words and claiming that you
wrote them
-stealing
intellectual property
Often easy to detect.
Use other people’s words the right way- “ “ citation
“Roses Sing on New Snow”

and lazy

too “fat and lazy”(1) to help.
lonely
and cold and bone-tired

she know that they were “lonely and cold and bone-tired.”(1) Her food would

How to Prepare to use Quotations in School Writing:
Second reading of the story:
1 Read the story/text.
2 Underline good words and phrases that you may want to use as
quotations.
3 When you write your paragraph or essay, you can sprinkle in
quoted words and phrases.
sprinkle – a little bit
QUESTION: When should I quote a word?
MY ANSWER: Why am I using this word? Is it a word that I use on my
own, or am I borrowing it from the story? You have to make a judgement call.
wonderful
creation ?
restaurant ?
·
Talk about plagiarism – copying from a text without
using “ ”
·
Incorporate quoted material into our
sentences.
·
Not copying sentences
·
borrow/quote just 1-2 words, 2-3 words, 3-4
words
·
no long quotations, long quotations are no
good for short answers
EF5 paragraph – 125-150ww
EF6,EF7, Eng10, Eng11 -150-200ww
- a few 3,4,5 short quotations (2-4, 3-4 words
each)
If we use long quotations in a short paragraph, then half of the
writing is just quotations.
If you are writing a 10-page paper, you can
use longer quotations.
For this class, Eng10,11,12 – stick to several
short quotations
*** This is a skill that must be practiced and perfected
EXAMPLE
Choose a short 2,3,4-word section from “I Confess” “Roses
Sing on New Snow”
Incorporate a short quotation into your own
sentence.
e.g.
RAW QUOTATION THAT I WANT TO WORK WITH
“I had set myself strict standards”(1)
Choose important word or words or a phrase.
“strict standards”
Mr. Wei
was very tough on Wang Wei because he wanted to hold the student to the “strict
standards”(1) that he had set.
“identical
ingredients”
Incorporate the key words or phase into my own sentence.
“identical
ingredients”
When Maylin and the governor cooked together, they used
“identical
ingredients”; nevertheless, the end results came out
different.
GOAL:
INCORPORATING A SHORT QUOTATION INTO YOUR
WRITING
HOMEWORK
Try a few sentences with quoted text. Email some
to me, and we can share them tomorrow.
