Response Paragraphs (2): You can write about anything that

connects and relates to 2 of the weekly readings. Remember

these two paragraphs are responses, but in the response

paragraph you are presenting your own ideas, thoughts and

opinions. You may try any of the following:

1. Write about your emotional response while reading the article.

Did you feel excited, angry, confused, upset, happy, like a light

just went on in your head? Explain your emotional response

while reading and be sure to analyze why you felt that way.

2. Explain to the reader why the ideas presented in the summary

paragraph are important. What do they need to know and

understand?

3. Connect the reading to your own personal experience. Does

the text remind you of something in your own life?

4. Argue with the text. Do you agree or disagree?

5. Evaluate the text. Would you recommend this text to others?

Why or why not?
