Learning from Our Class Essays
ESSAY TOPIC
In your introductory paragraph: (Should only be one paragraph long and no longer than half a page.) Describe the ideal structure for an essay. For example, you can cover how to create a good essay title, thesis, introduction, body paragraphs, and conclusion.
In your thesis answer the following question:
Identify one aspect of that essay writing that you are good at and one that you wish to improve based on your performance in your essays in this class.
In your body paragraphs, make sure to
- Support your thesis by quoting sentences from your own writing in your own actual graded essaysfor this class.
- Use first person (In Essay one, I wrote, “XX”).
- Make sure to follow up each quotation with a 4-5 sentence explanation of how it supports your topic sentence claim.
ORGANIZATION TIPS
1) Thesis formation: The thesis should subdivide into the same number of points as your total number of body paragraphs. If you have two body paragraphs, your thesis would subdivide into two points. Thesis needs to be the last sentence of your introduction. The thesis should fully answer the essay question. It should also be specific, concise, and arguable.
2) Body Paragraph Organization and Unity: Each body paragraph should discussion one idea that supports the thesis; in other words, body paragraphs should not repeat ideas from previous paragraphs and should not contain more than one main idea.
3) Topic Sentences: Each body paragraph must begin with a topic sentence that tells the reader which thesis idea that paragraph will be about.
4) Concluding Sentences: Each body paragraph should end with a concluding sentence that restates topic sentence main ideas and adds supportive reasoning. The goal is to summarize the main examples you covered in that body paragraph.
5) Quotations: You will need to support any assertions you make with a discussion of quotations from the texts assigned. All quotations should have an introductory phrase and should use the following MLA format. In Essay 1, I wrote, “XX.”
6) Quotation Analysis: All quotations should be followed by 4-5 or more sentences that provide a detailed explanation of how the quotation supports your body paragraph’s main idea. 7) Title: Divided into two parts separated by a colon. Centered. Double-spaced like your heading and the rest of your paper. Capitalize all key words. Should be a fragment. Not underlined or in boldface. No period at the end of the title. Your title should not just copy the title of this essay prompt or the title of the readings. Example:
General Topic: Your Two Thesis Ideas 8) Conclusion: A place for you to summarize your thesis and add any last reflections on your topic. Should be no longer than half of a page.
9) Essay formatting: Use MLA format. For help, see Purdue University OWL website and click on the MLA section.
10) Number of Paragraphs: In order to pass, your essay must have an introduction that ends in a thesis statement, two body paragraphs, and a conclusion. |
