How to craft an introduction and Project workday

Ancient Greece ELO 3 - I can investigate, identify, and debate several Greek contributions, events, and people

Today, students learned the steps for writing a concise informative introduction.  This will help students for their essay writing or presenting a speech.  Students used the rest of class time to complete one of the following: researching, filling out a graphic organizer or create a final project.  I sent an e-mail today for students who will need extra work time.

Introduction
Catchy opening/Hook/Grab reader’s attention
Give a few brief sentences of summary about story/time/place
Last sentence of the introduction =THESIS
The one sentence that states what the entire will essay will prove – The premise or central argument
The most important sentence in the essay
Usually 3 pronged
The magic number is 3
