This Try It! is designed to help you learn how to blend quotes into your stories.

Once you are done with this week's assigned reading, assess how well you understand journalistic conventions for using directly quoted material here.

Then, pick a sentence or two and correct the punctuation and attribution errors. (Try not to pick the same sentences others in the class already have attempted.)

Here are your sentence options:

1. "It was the moment I felt the handcuffs that I began to cry." "Never in my life would I have thought I would be going to jail." sobbed she.

2. Students get an "average" of nine hours of sleep a night. Some, uh, can function with less and some require more. Sleep need may be inherited, the psychology professor claimed.
