Project 1: Revising Your Point
Directions:
Step 1: Go back to the draft of Essay 1 that you submitted on Monday.
- Pick ONE of your body paragraphs. Write down your point/topic sentence here just like you had written it in your paper.
Step 2: Once you have your topic sentence (point) written down, revisit the directions and requirements for a Point.
- You can revisit these lectures: Review PowerPoints: Essay Format & Tips on Writing and Preparing for Project 1: Practicing PIE.
- Remember that your point should be an opinion that is based on fact.
Step 3: Based on the information above and what you know about Points, re-write your topic sentence. Make sure it follows all of the requirements above.
*For this activity, please focus only on the Point. We will be revising the rest of the paragraph soon.
