Do one source per page. Use the previous paper from the related order and rewrite it according to the attached template.
For each source, start with the Argumentative point/hypothesis, followed by evidence from the source supporting your argument.
Next, analyze the evidence and explain the content, and extend to a new point. Next, provide a new argument/hypothesis, and repeat the steps.
Structuring Analysis
(Excerpt from Foner, Eric. The Fiery Trial: Abraham Lincoln and American Slavery. New York: W.W. Norton & Company, 2010.)
[1] The first racially integrated social movement in American history, abolitionism was also the first to insist on the inextricable connection between the struggles against slavery and racism.
[2] “While the word ‘white’ is on the statute-book of Massachusetts,” declared the abolitionist editor Edmund Quincy, “Massachusetts is a slave state.”
[3] Abolitionists challenged both southern slavery and the racial proscription that confined free blacks to second-class status throughout the nation.
[4] In the ideas of a national citizenship and of equal rights for all Americans, abolitionists glimpsed the possibility, which came to fruition during the Civil War, that the national state might become the guarantor of freedom and equality rather than its enemy.
Step by step of structuring a paragraph
[1]Say something interesting based in your reading of evidence.
[2] Prove what you just said.
[3] Explain what the evidence says and push past it into a new point.
[4] Based on your evidence and analysis, suggest another idea that you’ll need to test with evidence.
1.Find something to talk about. Make a point about it, discuss it. Say something interesting about evidence.
2. Find evidence. Go to the document.
3. Talk about it some more. Expand on the evidence, analyze it.
4. Connect it to another thing.
