A PowerPoint presentation; covers the main types of connectives / transitions; and then works through a very abbreviated version of Chaucer’s “Steward’s Tale” to exemplify a variety of connectives / transitions as paragraph openers. Gives opportunities for students to identify connective / transition type; and discuss how these can be used to aid cohesion within a text.
