DO NOT begin your 
Point Sentences
 with—“
My first reason is,” “My second 
reason is,” “My third/final reason is.” Instead, begin each point sentence with a transition (see 
order below and page 20), put a comma after the transition, and then make the point about 
your topic you outlined in your pre-writing. Remember, you must keep the focus of your 
paper (the overall topic) in the point sentences. 3 Parts: Transition, Topic, & Pt.
a. (1
st
Pt.) To begin with, shopping is a favorite activity of mine because I get to buy 
new clothes.
