Unit #19
11th and 12th English
Dec 12-15
We are done with reading and learning different writing styles.
Now your job is to practice them. All papers this semester have
been written in “5 paragraph form”. Since you have become an
expert in this method, you will be ready for anything other
professors can throw at you—provided you remember to use
this method regardless of the class. One very important thought
—this method can be used with great success in any speech
writing you may do. The format will work on all papers—except
maybe some technical writing papers, so don’t forget what you
have learned.
Assignment 19.1
This is your final project. Please spend some good quality time making sure this is the "crowning paper" of the class.
Write a complete 5 paragraph paper using all the guidelines I have been going over this semester. I would suggest going to the "Review of Essay Rules" that I have linked in blue below.
You have a choice of topics, pick one and write like crazy.
1) Online learning is a better option for students than the traditional face-to-face format.
2) Should American citizens be able to own and carry firearms? Give reasons as to why or why not.
3) Teachers in school have a lot of different teaching styles. Some are more hands on while others want you to memorize as many facts as you can. Describe in an essay the most effective teaching style in your opinion.
