Make sure that your introduction has a clear and concise thesis statement that actually reflects the essay’s content. Also make sure you write well-developed paragraphs with at the very least three sentences per paragraph. Make sure you have a strong concluding paragraph. This is a college level composition course and your essays should exemplify that fact. Keep the grammar mistakes to a minimum.All essays in the class will be written in APA style. For this essay you will write a 500-700 word (word count does NOT include Cover page, Abstract or Reference pages) descriptive essay over a famous person from the 20th century. Try to describe their physical characteristics so that even though I have never met them, I can Google them to compare them to your descriptions. I must get a vivid picture of them in my head through your writing. Personality traits are fine, but you need to focus more on their physical traits.For example the introduction and conclusion can be biography but the body of the essay (paragraphs 2-4) must focus on the physical traits. The goal is for me to see them from your descriptions--like a police sketch artist.Often times when I grade these essays I will look at a picture of this person as I read to see how well you describe your person. Many times students will leave off key parts of the face that should be not only been listed, but also described in great detail. Remember all of the parts to a person’s head alone: head, hair, eyes, eye lashes, eye brows, nose, nostrils, cheeks, chin, lips, teeth, ears, earlobes etc. Some of you focused on the clothes your person wears rather than what they look like. When I grade these essays I will draw a picture based on your descriptions as I read so I can see what is left out of your descriptions. Do NOT include their clothing or attire in your description. What they wear is not important or relevant in this essay.As always, ALL assignments must be done in APA style, double-spaced, size 12 Times New Roman font. See the sample APA essay at this link and make yours look like it:https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/research_and_citation/apa_style/apa_formatting_and_style_guide/documents/20090212013008_560.pdf.

You will need to write a 650 word persuasive speech arguing against the issue Recall, as a FEDERALIST. I will be doing a debate in class with this speech.Read the materials (Raising the Eleventh Pillar) that I have linked, so you understand how the debate is structured, and how the speech can be appropriate to the debate. Then carefully review the PRIMARY SOURCE that I have linked below, this source should inform your understanding of the issue, and give you some direct access to the voices from this moment. You do NOT need to quote the source directly, unless there is some really on-point phrase, or super great wording, that catches your eye. Pay attention to what ROBERT LIVINGSTON & ROBERT MORRIS SAY. You do not need to read all 16 pages just skip to the parts of Livingston & MorrisI have also attached a file named "Extra sources for the speech" that you can use to help you do the speech.The speech should be organized something like this:- I am here to persuade you to vote against the power of recall- Explain what the power of recall would do- for example, take power away from voters at election time and likely give undue influence to a few disgruntled people.- Bring home the bigger point: How this will protect all people in the new U.S., and what the larger issue is at stake. Why did we fight this American Revolution, if not protect elections? Use recent history of the American Revolution to help make your point, if you wish.Tips on how to write the speech: Write in your own words. Write in crisp brief sentences. No room for long-winded complexity here. Keep it straightforward, strong and vivid. You are not a student 2017, but rather an American in 1788 trying to figure out what would be the best government for a weak and fledging nation going forward. Some info about Recall: Recall, Federalists object to this provision,perhaps more than to any other, because recall is wholly incompatible with independence. The provision applies chiefly to senators, whose term is long enough for state legislatures (the electorate of senators under the new Constitution) to regret their choice and be unwilling to wait the six years (maximum) for a new election. The crux of the problem is this: Antifederalists think that the Senate represents the states, and they therefore think that senators are agents of the states; but the Senate principally is a check upon the House. In order to perform this task, the Senate must be independent, to a degree, of both the people and the states. For Federalists, recall is dangerous, because it lessens the independence of representatives. It would also create instability, if elected representatives could be subjected to recall at any time.
