TIQA Writing
My grandmother had an ugly dog, TIQA. Remembering this name, will help you write an awesome paragraph!
Topic Sentence• Normally the first sentence of your
paragraph!• It tells the reader exactly what the
paragraph is about. • Ex’s: Some people feel that beauty is a
prerequisite for true love—a lover must believe that their significant other is the most beautiful person on the face of the Earth, but Shakespeare shows us this is not true.
Introduction
• The introduction sentences summarize what is happening in the story or stories you are writing about.
• Ex: Shakespeare shows us two people with different opinions in his poem, Sonnet 130, and in Act II, scene i of Romeo and Juliet. In Act II, scene i he shows Romeo showering Juliet with his affection.
Quote
• Steal some words from the play short story or poem that you are analyzing.
• When Romeo proclaims, “But soft! What light through yonder window breaks? It is the East and Juliet is the sun!” he is telling the audience that she is beautiful (1023). Your Opinions!
Analysis
• Include your opinions after the quote—this is your analysis
• Ex: Romeo drones on and on about how fair and lovely Juliet is. He constantly reminds his reader that she is the most beautiful woman in the world.
Transition--
• Transition to discussing a second example and quote for the paragraph.
Ex: Yet, it seems that Shakespeare himself does not agree with Romeo.
Introduce
• Describe the new situation after you have transitioned!
• In Sonnet 130, Shakespeare shows us a man that does not believe his lover is beautiful.
Quote
• Steal the words from the literature again!
• If he felt she was beautiful, he would not have written, “My mistress eyes are nothing like the sun; Coral is far more red than her lips,” (1-2).
Analysis
• Include your opinions again
• Ex: This shows us that the man believes his lover is hideous, yet he says that his love is true anyway.
