Below I will explain how to Chart a Text. Then, I will give an example of how I charted a non-fiction text. = =<span style="background-color: #fffafa; color: #0046ff; display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; text-align: center; vertical-align: super;">How to Chart a Text: = = My Example from "Horrible Images of Death in Haiti" = death/human bodies. || 1/2 || setting up the article or writing an introduction to prepare the readers. || nothing but expose tragedies of innocent people || 3/4 || author presents opposition to the argument of allowing graphic images to be published || determinating what is/is not appropriate || 5/6 7/8 || author is demonstrating a naural fctor between the argument || be more casreful in showing graphic images || 9/10 || the author begins to demonstrate a proponent of being able to publish graphic images || on the front of the newspaper. it gets to graphic for them || 11/12 13/14 || the author is giving evidence by telling the readers what people have to see with no waring and the image with no warning is the worst of all images. || the newspapers. they don't want to bring home a newspaper with dead people in the front page || 15/16 17/18 || the author is making the reader feel how the others would if they were the ones bringing in that type of news paper. he is proposing how people are going to feel. ||
 * == >>the first thing you have to do is choose an article to chart the text on. when you chart the text you have to draw a T chart with two lines going down the middle so that it creates a thin column. on the right side you put "says" and on the left you put "does". in the middle lines you put the paragraph numbers. ==
 * ~ What does the author say? ||~ Par. ||~ What does the author do? ||
 * people find disturbing images that depict
 * readers oppose graphic images that do
 * news professionals have a difficult time
 * news professionals have taken steps to
 * viewers don't like that there is no warning
 * newspapers are unfiltered and people buy
 * graphic images make people feel therefore give a good thing. || 19/20 || casting a proposal to allow graphic images to be published freely. || <span style="color: #000000; display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; text-align: center; vertical-align: super;"><%2Proxy-Connection: keep-alive Cache-Control: max-age=0 r> ||

= Finally, I want to showcase three assignments that I am especially proud of. = <span style="color: #a50ec8; display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; text-align: center; vertical-align: super;">3 Part Source Integration- <span style="color: #a50ec8; display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; text-align: center; vertical-align: super;">In the article "Horrible Images of Death in Haiti" the author, Andrew Alexander, a ombudsman for the Washington Post, claims "Journalism is about truth, and the horrific images convey reality. Photos, even unsettling ones, are meant to capture our emotions" (par 19). This is important because images can make people do something about the event or disaster. when they just hear or read about the happening they are more likley to sit back down and continue what they were doing before. They also most likley would not be getting the whole truth from the article. "Words make people think, images make people feel" (par 20).
