Animal farm essay

Writing the introduction

The question:

Animal farm is a text which lacks literary value due to its irrelevant thematic messages, simplistic style and outdated contextual concerns – evaluate this statement.

thesis

[This is the most important part of your essay] What is your line of argument in response to the statement? (ie what are your reasons for agreeing or disagreeing with the statement?) This sets the parameters of your discussion.

Structure of an introduction

Engage with the statement in an attention grabbing opening sentence. (eg quote, insightful statement, anecdote etc)

2. Introduce your text (Animal Farm - the title should always be underlined) and the composer (George Orwell) and show your understanding of the keywords in the essay statement.

3. State your thesis – what exactly will you be arguing throughout your essay? What is your position on the given statement and what are the arguments that you’ll be using to prove your position?

4. End your introduction with a summative sentence giving an overall judgment on the novella – what you’ve learnt from it & its overall value.

Task:

By the end of this lesson, you need to have completed your introduction (if you already have, refine it). Then submit it to google classroom so I can take a look and give feedback.
