Blog #14: Ideas for improving my performance in the CATW

After reading the examples of annotations and sample response,  I can see that it is very important to write down the annotations to be sure of put in all the important words and ideas; also while developing the response it is a good method to first pick an idea, second write my own thesis and last write the examples, and  I must use the transition words between the pharagraphs to help the reader to understand my work.
Transition words I could be using in my  CATW response:
Because ,In fact, Definitely, In other words, In conclusion, Therefore... 



After doing this excersice, I did notice how important is to don't forget that it is a very good strategy to use transition words, we must not forget refer back to reading  and the most important thing is that it is very necessary to anotate  to be sure  we are not going to miss the  trail of the reading. So I should be sure of picking up a significant idea.

After reading the comment from the Dr. Kristen Gallagher's  student, I learned that I need to be more specific, give more examples, especially personal examples and definitively use transition words to connect  the paragraphs.     Thank's very much to the Reader for the advices.!!!!

With Keith's help I did notice that my CATW # 5, needs to be expanded, and the main idea needs to be  better explained.    Thanks to Keith.!!!
