T.I.E.E. is an acronym that can help your writing and improve your body paragraph. T stands for Topic Sentence. I stands for Intro to Evidence. E stands for Evidence and the second E stands for Elaborate. To explain it all, your topic sentence should intrigue your readers and grab their attention. Intro to evidence should state what your topic is and what your are going to focus directly on. Evidence should be quotes and references about that particular topic. Lastly elaborate and go into detail about your topic. If you follow this method, your paper should be a lot better. I personally followed it somewhat. I didn't even know about it and I would say I followed it
My name's Giovanni Bartlett. Many call me Gio and either one is fine by me. I'm 50% Italian, which a lot of my friends think is cool so I guess that's cool then. I love music! I would say I'm an avid music listening enthusiast. I pretty much made that up, but I think it sounds neat. Hip hop is definitely my favorite type of music.
What do I expect from this class? Good Question. I hope my skills in reading and writing improve because it's an English class so that's kind of the point. I hope we don't have to read lame boring books. I don't mind reading but if it's uninteresting then it's harder for me to finish. I do pretty well in English classes so I plan on continuing that for this trimester.
