Your student has a working thesis and research for a research paper. Now what? I find that incorporating the research into body paragraphs is the most difficult part of the research paper for my students. This original "Research Sandwich" formula guides students step-by-step in writing body paragraphs. They end up with the proper balance of their own words and their research and learn to transition between ideas. I have been highly successful with this method in my own classrooms, and I think you will be, too! (Note: in-text citations in example paragraphs are in MLA format.)
This lesson is INCLUDED in my "Writing A Research Paper" unit.
Includes: 4-page instructional handout with examples and 4 pages of student worksheets.
Laura, I use a similar way to teach this in middle school. This will be great for my advanced kids!

I downloaded and fully intend to implement this when my regular English writes their research papers in the 3rd 9weeks. Thank you. I do not think you should be discouraged about the ad...I purchased one (but it was a Wednesday which aren't great) and made ZERO sales. However, on the forum, I asked about it too...many responses were sellers telling me they've not had a lot of results stemming from the purchased ads. Having said that, your product looks great!! I love it. and, don't give up on the ads. Try a different day---Sunday? maybe? or different category if you can fit it? You never know if it will drive traffic and another purchase...Best of luck. I'm following you now...could you check out my store (9 freebies...:)) and follow me too? I'm working on building a following...pretty new to this as well. I'm ridiculously obsessed too!! Guess I long for an increase to my teacher's salary. Sorry for rambling. Have a great one!
