DIRECTIONS FOR THE THIRD EXPOSITORY ESSAY

Turn in an outline instead of the actual essay. For the introduction mention your topic as the motivator, and then mention your thesis statement in a clear, complete sentence. (This is your main point.) Then for the body of the essay mention your topic sentences. (These are your sub points, and you must mention them in clear, complete sentences.) After each topic sentence you may mention specific support (a phrase or two by way of examples). Then for the conclusion mention your reworded thesis statement with a clincher.

Begin the outline with your title.

The number of your topic sentences depends on the number of your sub points.

If you use a secondary source, make a clear reference.

As you contemplate any of the following questions, please remember that you need to develop one precise answer to work as your thesis statement.

Highlight the question of your choice and attach this sheet to your outline.
