ESSAYS!

TITLE choose an appropriate title for your essay – Essay is NOT a good title do not underline your title – only the title of the work (if it is in your title)

Introduction use the following structure (inverted-pyramid): 1st part – broad statement(s) about topic 2nd part – introduce the work and author 3rd part – thesis statement

Body Paragraphs topic sentence that states the first topic you are discussing PPE x 3 concluding sentence that reinforces your topic

(Remember to do this THREE times) EXAMPLE of PPE: Firstly, throughout the fairy tale Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Snow White is shown as a beautiful girl. In particular, this is shown when the evil queen’s mirror states that, “Snow White is the fairest of them all” (Grimm 2). This example proves that Snow White is ranked the most beautiful in all the kingdom, because it is by a mirror that sees all. (Remember to do this THREE times)

Conclusion use the following structure (pyramid): 1st part – restatement of thesis 2nd part – still related to work 3rd part – broad statement(s) about topic

Throughout your essay remember… no “I” – also avoid “you” don’t use contractions  no slang

your paragraphs should follow the same order as your thesis use present tense for novel or play events use transition words when you start a new paragraph AND when you start a new point in each paragraph

if it makes sense order your paragraphs – second strongest point, weakest point, strongest point underline or italicize novel and play titles make new paragraphs obvious by indenting
