Paraphrase
In the body of the essay, you must incorporate material from your sources. You will either paraphrase or quote your sources.
When you paraphrase, you must put the source material into your own words. It is not enough to change a few of the author's words. Instead, you must radically change the original sentence structures, while keeping the author's idea intact.
Read "Successful vs. unsuccessful paraphrases" and "How to paraphrase a source" and "Paraphrase: Write it in Your Own Words".
Then complete this exercise. The answers should be printed out and submitted in the first essay folder.
