To set up quotes adequately, we can think of this writing technique and template shared in class, which is similar to the paragraph burger method.
What is a quotation sandwich?
Similar to the idea of the “paragraph burger”, we can set up quotations by thinking of the statement introducing the quotation as the top slide of bread, and the explanation that follows it as the bottom slice. In the middle of the “sandwich”, our “filling” or the quotation itself, takes center stage.
The introduction “slice” should lead into the quotation, by explaining who is speaking and what the quotation says. The follow up statements should also explain why you consider the quotation to be important, and what you take the statement to say.
