Evergreen: A Guide to Writing with Readings

With carefully crafted instruction, engaging student models, and plentiful practice exercises, this best-selling text continues to provide the most effective paragraph-essay level writing instruction available. EVERGREEN is structured around Susan Fawcett’s proven MAP (model-analysis-practice) format — a guiding pedagogy featuring minimal inductive instruction followed by varied practice designed to improve students’ confidence and learning outcomes. Known for its superior essay coverage, EVERGREEN demonstrates each of the nine rhetorical patterns with two student sample essays (one in the third person, and one in the first person), and a graphic organizer. The Eleventh Edition includes a new chapter focused on active reading strategies; more explanation of and practice for writing effective thesis statements; updated information about research and citing sources; and nine new high-interest readings in a variety of modes, with new post-reading questions and assignments.Important Notice: Media content referenced within the product description or the product text may not be available in the ebook version.
