The Hamburger Method AND the Source Sandwich

The Hamburger Method is the basic organization and layout for a body-paragraph; however, within that hamburger, you will integrate sources.  This is where you have little source sandwiches.  

You will need to remember BOTH concepts when structuring your body paragraphs.  

• The Hamburger Method is the organization of the whole body-paragraph, and 
• the Source Sandwich is the little nugget within the hamburger order, where you use sources to defend your argument assertions.

Always use The Hamburger Method and The Source Sandwich.

Using Transitions to Add Information (The FANIMALS Song!)

Video and lesson content from WordVice

Transitions are used to move from one idea to another idea in writing or speaking and can be achieved using transition terms and phrases. These help create “flow” in your paper—melding together facts, opinions, and arguments into a seamless whole and making it much easier for readers to understand its logical development.

One of the most common type of transitions is ADDITIVE TRANSITIONS. The purpose of these kinds of transitions is to connect two or more pieces of information by signaling to the reader that something new is being added--whether that new information is similar to what the author has just described or whether is it something unrelated.
