Today, during class, we learned the four steps to paraphrasing. These steps include the following: 1. Read the passage slowly. 2. Find the meaning of unfamiliar words. 3. Reread it. 4. Rewrite it. Also, during class, we did a worksheet practicing paraphrasing. Afterwards, we signed a paper stating that we understand our due date and what is expected of us. We then received a rubric for our research paper.
 * Key ideas
 * Synonyms or definitions.
 * Use own words.
 * Shorten or lengthen sentences.
 * Change word order.
