Student Professor Thomas English 101.020 October 5, 2016 Title of Essay Introduction     The introduction attracts the reader’s interest. Begin your essay with a question, a quote, an anecdote, or a startling statement or statistic. Follow with a general sentence that connects the question, quote, or anecdote to the topic. Add background information, a definition, or any other pertinent information in several sentences that funnel down to a workable thesis statement. Write the thesis statement. The thesis statement is placed at the END of the introductory paragraph. The thesis statement is ONE sentence that controls the entire essay. It lets the reader know the points you will cover in your supporting paragraphs. The points are presented in the order in which they will be developed in the paper. First Body Paragraph       Begin the paragraph with a transitional word or transitional phrase and a topic sentence. The topic sentence advances the first supporting point for the thesis, and the specific evidence in the rest of the paragraph develops that first point. State one of the major details to support the topic sentence. Elaborate by adding textual support or evidence (This may be several sentences.) State another major detail that supports the topic sentence. Elaborate by adding textual support or evidence (This may be several sentences.) Add a clincher sentence or a transitional sentence which concludes this topic and connects this paragraph to the next. Second Body Paragraph    Begin the paragraph with a transitional word or transitional phrase, and write a topic sentence that contains your second point. State one major detail to support the topic sentence. Elaborate by adding textual support or evidence (This may be several sentences.)    State another major detail that supports the topic sentence. Elaborate by adding textual support or evidence (This may be several sentences.) Add a clincher sentence or a transitional sentence which concludes this topic and connects this paragraph to the next. Third Body Paragraph       Begin the paragraph with a transitional word or transitional phrase, and write a topic sentence that contains your third point. State one major detail to support the topic sentence. Elaborate by adding textual support or evidence (This may be several sentences.) State another major detail that supports the topic sentence. Elaborate by adding textual support or evidence (This may be several sentences.) Add a clincher sentence. Conclusion   Write a general summary. A summary is a brief restatement of the thesis and its main points. Write a conclusion. A conclusion is a final thought or two stemming from the subject of the essay. The conclusion will make a universal appeal or a call to action, as appropriate. (The conclusion may be expressed in more than one sentence.) Remember: Every paragraph is indented about ½ inch from the left margin. As you write your paper, refer to the GRADING CHART FOR ESSAYS (the rubric) to see how your paper will be evaluated.
