Analysis

My daughter was groaning about a paragraph that she has to write for her English class. I asked if she was given a checklist of things to look for, and she handed me a sheet of paper. Hmmm, I said, she says to use the techniques of an 'analytical paragraph'. What's that? She shrugged.

Of course, they never mentioned that in class. Of course, I didn't find three different examples of one with a google search for that phrase. Of course the instructor doesn't have an example on her web page.

Oh, her life is so tough.
