The Five-Paragraph Essay (pp )
Presentation transcript:

True or False Each body paragraph should include a thesis statement. The thesis statement of the essay should be located in the introductory paragraph. New supporting details should be introduced in the conclusion paragraph. Transition words should be used in academic writing. First, second, and third person perspective should be used in academic writing. (I, you, he) A topic sentence introduces the main idea of a paragraph. Compare and contrast essays do not need a thesis statement.

True or False In Academic writing, it is okay to use contractions. Besides introducing the thesis, the introduction also gives a general outline of the essay. Each body paragraph expands upon a different idea or aspect pertaining to the main thesis. Compare/contrast essays show the similarities and differences between two things or ideas. You do not need to cite if you are just paraphrasing and not quoting in the exact same words.
