add words to my paper that make me sound like an expert
We have a draft and we added additional facts to them. Now we want to add words, definitions and phrases to make us sound like experts. We also want to add some more transitions words to make our paragraphs flow better.
Today, as we read our teacher model, think about what words the author uses that help her to sound like an expert.
Notice how the author shows that they are an expert by using vocabulary words that are commonly used when discussing their topic. Sometimes the expert word includes a definition. They mix the definition into the text.
