You will need to switch with a partner. They will code the components of your writing according to the following system:

4. Mark C for proper citation of the quote (parentheses... author last name if not mentioned before... page number... period AFTER the parentheses).
5. Mark * for explanation of the quote
6. Mark E for proper and effective WARRANTS.
7. Mark A, B for each specific example given under their main supporting points. Do this for each supporting point.
