HOOK: This grabs the reader’s attention. It can be a question, a brief story, a startling statistic, an interesting fact, or an appropriate and related quote. It must relate to the topic. It can be one or morel sentences but must be in 3 rd Person Only, and should combine several. 2. GENERAL DISCUSSION OF TOPIC: Here you expand your hook by getting more into your topic.

The way you determine what each paragraph is going to focus on is by the “main points” you made in your thesis. Each of those individual points must be developed into “connected individual paragraphs” that have all of the following parts: 1. TOPIC SENTENCE—This has 4 parts: it must begin with a “transition,” be a complete sentence that identifies the topic (one of the points from your thesis), relate to the overall topic of the paper, and has either the number of things or the specific ideas you will Download 0.99 Mb.
