Sections 48 & 49

Section 48, which explains classification, pertains to the current paper assignment in how I will be explaining a series of ideas and changes that would effect the K-12 curriculum. "Classification explains how the items in a series are similar and different from the other items in series." For example, I could list off a series of additions to a school, in which I could classify each change by the possible outcome. In the series of additions to K-12, each outcome could be similar or different to another result. I could list characteristics of the school and teachers before implementing a series of changes that I would consider helpful to the school. By doing this you are preparing the reader with information about the subjects in your paper. Section 49 explains how to create a comparison/contrast paper. When you are composing this type of essay you are basically comparing and contrasting two subjects; in which you list off numerous characteristics of each item. For my next paper I could compare and contrast two schools or two teachers. I could list pros and cons of each curriculum; which provide evidence to the reader of how they are similar or different. Sections 48 and 49 could be included in the same essay. They seem to be similar methods of writing; You could compare and contrast characteristics in a classification paragraph.
