Rhetorical Analysis, Part VI - Embedding Quotes

In our wrap-up session of rhetorical analysis, we discuss how to effectively embed an author’s quote in your writing. We discuss why this is an important skill to develop throughout the year and how it factors into your overall essay score. We look at released student writing examples to see how to effectively include an author’s ideas without letting them take over your own writing. We also discuss how to strike the perfect balance of having a quote that is not too short or too long.
