So on Wednesday we talked about the different startegies that you can use to write a "kick ass" introduction. Remember, generally speaking, your readers are going to be looking for your point/ purpose/ claim/ thesis by the end of your introduction (which could be one or two paragraphs for a 3-ish page essay!). If your thesis doesn't come until later, that's fine, but your readers still have to have some idea of where the paper in question is going!
For Friday's class, we will talk about the other end of the essay: the conclusion!

See you all in class! :D
