REFLECTION or what you have already :
1. You have two body paragraphs - one on Edward Scissorhands and one on Billy Elliot.
2. You should have another paragraph from a supplementary text of your choice or from the teacher Ten Things I Hate About Me.
Structure of Expository essay :
Prompt : It is difficult to belong
Introduction - discuss both sides of prompt - use a quote to sum up an interesting relevant idea.
Body paragraph one
Topic
sentence Not all people find it easy to fit in. (3-4 sentences or more
discussing with examples from media, your own experience or the
experience of others e.g. moving to new school, being different and not
being accepted, bullying etc) Then use Edward Scissorhands as your
evidence in 2-3 sentences.
Body paragraph two
Topic
sentence Yet some individuals have the strength to be who they want to
be without the approval of others. (3-4 sentences or more discussing
with examples from media, your own experience or the experience of
others e.g. true individuals who lead society to change their outlook)
Then use Billy Elliot as your evidence in 2-3 sentences.
Body paragraph three
Topic
sentence - your choice - both sides of prompt? A different viewpoint?
Same structure as above - first discussion of ideas - then evidence.
Supplementary - Body paragraph three - can be teacher supplementary or your own choice.
