Analyzing Statistics, Reading Graphs

Today I would like you to read the information on the site below, and write a paragraph to summarize the main points of the entry. Format carefully, and print.

http://www.statcan.gc.ca/pub/11-630-x/11-630-x2015004-eng.htm

Remember the steps in the writing process; don't skip any!

After carefully proofreading, use the following checklist:

1. Is there a title?
2. Does the topic sentence and controlling idea adequately summarize the internet entry?
3. Do the supporting sentences refer to the charts in the entry?
4. Does the conclusion reflect the TS?
5. Have you used transition words?
6. Have you used reporting verbs?
7. Have you included any noun clauses?
8. Did you check grammar, spelling, and punctuation?
