How does Billy Collins present/develop the Central idea in this text?
In your paragraph (6-8 sentence response):
-identify the central idea
-provide contextual evidence to support the central idea
-discuss the general technique Collins uses to bring out the central idea
Ensure your blog posting is free of Grammatical and Structural errors.
Having posted your blog, with your name written in the blog to identify yourself, you must now respond to at least ONE other classmate's blog posting by either agreeing or disagreeing with the central idea that he/she presented. In taking a position on the classmate's posting, you must support, using evidence from the text as well as your own reasoning, why you have taken such position in responding to the person's blog.
