• The body paragraphs should have a topic sentence.
   
  • The topic sentence should have a subject, action verb and object. 
    • The subject is the idea
    • The object is your comment about the idea.

• Commentary: This is where you answer the implied questions embedded in the comment  of your topic sentence.

• The conclusion is a summation of the entire essay. Summation is different from a summary.  

Minimum length: 500-750 words.  Copy & paste your essay single spaced when you post your answer.  This will make it easier for me to read - less scrolling.      Sources: the textbook & the Instructor PDF files.  This means that if you quote a passage from the textbook, it MUST be cited. This goes for the instructor PDF files.      How to Avoid Plagiarism...
Remember, your post is in your own words. DO NOT copy the information, word for word, from the textbook or the Instructor PDF files.  If you do this, you will receive a ZERO for this Assignment. In addition, if you look up information on a website, you must also rewrite it in your own words. I will only accept websites that are scholarly written - this does not include Wikipedia, Dictionaries, Encyclopedias, blogs or children’s books. Do not Google your answer.  For help with citing, please refer to the Syllabus.
