Template Sentences

PDF Handout from Long Island University (Brooklyn): Template Sentences

I first read about the concept of template sentences as a pedagogical approach to teaching writing "moves" in my course on teaching "basic" writers. But these sentences could be helpful to just about anyone being introduced to the world of academic writing. For more on this see Amazon.com: They Say/I Say: The Moves That Matter in Academic Writing: Books: Gerald Graff,Cathy Birkenstein, which is one of the texts being used by English 110 students at Missouri State.
