You have finished reading and viewing. Now it is time to write.
Yesterday, we worked on writing introductions and thesis statements. Today, you will read and analyze a student essay and learn how to form your own essay.
Part I
1. Click on this link and open the student example.
2. On the document, click on File, Make Copy, and save a copy to your English Collection in Google Docs.
3. Follow along with me for the first paragraph, and then move on to annotating and highlighting your own copy. (introduction of topic, organization, details, examples, quotations, explanations, transitions, precise language, formal style, conclusion)
4. When you are done, make a list of all the transitions you found and explain how they are used.
5. Outline the essay. Is this a possible outline you could use for your own essay?
