Short asnwer questions (SAQ)

Hi everyone,



I'd like to remind you once again about the homework for Monday. I suppose some of you have already started on the SAQ, but for those who haven't, this is what you need to do:

1. Choose one of the questions (1, 2, 3 or 5 on p. 161);

2. Analyze what the question is asking you to do. Give attention to key words (explain, agree/disagree).

3. Look in your notes for all the material we covered in the unit on male/female communication pattern. See what information could be used to answer the selected question. You might need to integrate information from various sources.

4. Make a mini-plan of the answer.



You are going to write in class on Monday. Come to class with the plan, and hand it in at the end of the class together with your first draft of the answer.



Please note that this type of questions is similar to the essay questions. It is a little shorter, usually one to two paragraphs long, and there is no thesis statement as in the essay questions, but the first paragraph starts with a topic sentence, which is basically the rephrased question.

Have a nice Sunday!
