Be sure you will be able to support it.
3 Topic: Maggie Quality: Adventurous Now we need to find supports to PROVE our quality. Brainstorm a list of 5-10 supports. Loves to hunt frogs and lizards. Barks at the gate and the window. Chases squirrels ferociously. Once hounded a coyote Searches nightly for the moon Loves boating Takes herself for walks when gardeners leave the gate open Snail Slinger Extraordinaire Once chased by a swarm of bees Ate yard mushrooms and had to have her stomach pumped Now, choose the best THREE that fit your topic and have enough to write a paragraph about.
4 Thesis Statement: A thesis statement tells what your essay is about. It includes the topic, what is being proved, and your three supports. Now that you have your topic, your quality, and your three supports, practice writing some thesis statements. Vary your sentence structure to make the sentences more interesting and see which you like best. Write 3-5. Adventure should be my dog, Maggie s, middle name because of her joyful walks alone, extreme hunting abilities, and love for boating. When it comes to adventure, my dog, Maggie has the word sewn up because of her joyful walks alone, extreme hunting abilities, and love for boating. Her joy in walking alone, extreme hunting abilities, and love for boating make my dog, Maggie, a supreme adventurer. Maggie, the adventure dog, boasts a love for walks alone, extreme hunting abilities, and sheer joy in the pleasure of boating. Due to her joy for walking alone, extreme hunting abilities, and love of boating activities, Maggie boasts the name "Adventure Dog".
5 Hunts for frogs and lizards: Maggie: Adventurous Fluffy butt sticking up from the pond in the back yard, always comes in with front paws and face all wet. One time I heard a huge splash, Maggie came TEARING in the house, dripping wet. She had fallen in!!! Will lay in wait, staring at the wall all day watching a lizard and waiting for it to make one deadly move before she pounces. Hunter: one who searches or seeks for something Quote: A dog in a kennel barks at his fleas; a dog hunting does not notice them Proverb. Create THREE pages like this: one for each support.
6 Introductory Paragraphs An Introductory paragraph introduces the essay. It tells what the author will prove or explain in the piece. It includes an interest catching device, background information, and a thesis statement. ICD: An interest catching device is something interesting right at the beginning of the paragraph to catch the reader's attention. It can be a quote, a definition, or an interesting fact. Sample ICDs: -"Life is either a great adventure, or nothing." Helen Keller -According to the Meriam-Webster dictionary, the definition of adventure is the encountering of risks. Background Information: The middle of your introductory paragraph should include background information about your topic and possibly allude to what you will be proving. Sample Background Information: To some, like Helen Keller, a life without adventure is a life not worth living. This is also the case for my dog, Maggie. Adventure sings in her soul. A day without adventure to Maggie is like chips without salsa.she would rather not live, than live a life without excitement. Thesis Statment: The introductory paragraph should end with a thesis statement. The thesis statement includes the topic, what will be proven, and the three supports to be discussed within the essay. Sample Thesis Statements: Adventure should be my dog, Maggie s, middle name because of her joyful walks alone, extreme hunting abilities, and love for boating. When it comes to adventure, my dog, Maggie, has the word sewn up because of her joyful walks alone, extreme hunting abilities, and love for boating. Her joy in walking alone, extreme hunting abilities, and love for boating make my dog, Maggie, a supreme adventurer. Maggie, the adventure dog, boasts a love for walks alone, extreme hunting abilities, and sheer joy in the pleasure of boating. Due to her joy for walking alone, extreme hunting abilities, and love of boating activities, Maggie boasts the name "Adventure Dog". Sample Introductory Paragraph: "Life is either a great adventure, or nothing." Helen Keller To some, like Helen Keller, a life without adventure is a life not worth living. This is also the case for my dog, Maggie. Adventure sings in her soul. A day without adventure to Maggie is like chips without salsa.she would rather not live, than live a life without excitement.her joy in walking alone, extreme hunting abilities, and love for boating make my dog, Maggie, a supreme adventurer.
7 Support Paragraphs Previously, you brainstormed for each of your three supports Qinding the following: deqinitions, quotes, listing facts, and telling stories. You should take a few moments to choose the best stuff from what you've brainstormed. Now, you will need to write an introductory sentence such as: Joy exudes from Maggie when she is on the hunt. A Dog in a kennel barks at <leas; a dog hunting does not notice them. Proverb The de<inition of hunter is one who seeks or searches for something. You should think of a good topic sentence for your paragraphs to introduce each support. You may want to write more than one and choose the best. Following the introductory sentence, you will need to work on incorporating the information from the brainstorm page within the paragraph. Sample Support Sentences: On a regular basis, Maggie sits on the edge of the pond with her Qluffy rear end sticking up in the air. Her obsession will allow her to stay there for hours. Usually, she comes in the house with her mouth and front paws dripping with water, smelling of Qish. One day I found out that she wasn t Qishing because there were not any Qish in the pond. Instead, she was hunting frogs! One time, I heard a huge splash and the next thing I knew her paws were skidding in through the back door. She was soaking wet! Maggie went straight to the bath that day, but the threat of a bath did not hide her smile from the great hunt. Other times, I Qind her crouched in the bushes under a tree watching the wall intently. She is waiting like a lion in the jungle waiting to pounce. She will watch one lizard for hours waiting for it to make its last deadly move before she leaps. At the end of the paragraph you will need to write a closing sentence. Closing sentences usually have some sort of realization. Here is an example of a realization: Maggie always sleeps well after a day on the hunt, having soothed the adventure in her soul. Here is a Sample Support Paragraph: "A dog in a kennel barks at Qleas; a dog hunting does not notice them." Proverb This is a perfect example of my dog, Maggie, when she is hunting. In fact, the deqinition of hunter is one who seeks or searches for something. On a regular basis, Maggie sits on the edge of the pond with her Qluffy rear end sticking up in the air. Her obsession will allow her to stay there for hours. Usually, she comes in the house with her mouth and front paws dripping with water, smelling of Qish. One day I found out that she wasn t Qishing because there were not any Qish in the pond. Instead, she was hunting frogs! One time, I heard a huge splash and the next thing I knew her paws were skidding in through the back door. She was soaking wet! Maggie went straight to the bath that day, but the threat of a bath did not hide her smile from the great hunt. Other times, I Qind her crouched in the bushes under a tree watching the wall intently. She is waiting like a lion in the jungle waiting to pounce. She will watch one lizard for hours waiting for it to make its last deadly move before she leaps. Maggie always sleeps well after a day on the hunt, having soothed the adventure in her soul.
8 What is in a Closing? Restate thesis in a different way Summarize main points in essay (from-to, and another point) Specific realization Broad realization Closing Paragraph Sample When it comes to adventure, my dog, Maggie, has the word sewn up because of her joyful walks alone, extreme hunting abilities, and love for boating. From escaping the backyard and exploring the neighborhood to plucking frogs from my backyard pond, her soul sings with adventure each and every day. True happiness comes when Maggie is on the water watching skiers glide by the boat and snapping at their heels gleefully. The day Maggie loses her ability to seek adventure will be the day her soul dies. For dogs, adventure is what life is all about. Compare Intro Paragraph to Closing Paragraph to be sure they are different enough!!! "Life is either a great adventure, or nothing." Helen Keller To some, like Helen Keller, a life without adventure is a life not worth living. This is also the case for my dog, Maggie. Adventure sings in her soul. A day without adventure to Maggie is like chips without salsa.she would rather not live, than live a life without excitement.her joy in walking alone, extreme hunting abilities, and love for boating make my dog, Maggie, a supreme adventurer.
