paragraph skills

There is a wide range of things that people need to work on in their five part paragraphs. In general though people are misunderstanding how to embed their quotes, forgetting transitions, and missing commentary.
The most commonly missed skill is embedding quotes. Often people will not lead into their quote or will instead use a commentary to introduce the quote. In these cases, though, they form two sentences as there embedding. A lack of transitions is also common and can make the paragraph sound choppy. People also tend to miss understanding the definition of commentary and instead use facts they learned from the literature. Instead they should use things they inferred about the characters. Still overall the paragraphs are pretty good.
     Personally, I also have some writing skills to work on. A few of them are using quotes that are far to long, leaving out commentary, and spelling things incorrectly. To begin I tend to draw out my quotes which can confuse the reader or just bore them. The real problem is that I'm just including more information than is needed. I'm also guilty of miss using strait facts where commentary should go. I'm not exactly clear on how to infer things from the literature or what to infer. lastly I am a horrible speller. Even when I use spell check I often miss a word or pick the wrong spelling for the specific definition of a word. There is definitely a lot I can work on in my writing techniques.
