Opinion/Response Paper

The next paper we will write will be a response paper on one of the following topics that are related to The Joy Luck Club.

The topics is “Cultural Conflict”

You must use the resources from the following website, not google search. In your essay, you will explain background information on your topic, and then explain how the topic is related to the textbook, using specific examples.

In other words, why and how is your topic related to the textbook? This should be your thesis statement/ main argument.

You will write three drafts of this paper, thus utilizing a “process” approach, in which your writing will evolve and improve due to an extended time for revision, and feedback from both your peers and your teacher.

In the first draft, you must:

· Write an introduction that provides a thesis statement that explains how your topic relates to the textbook

· Provide 2 - 3 paragraphs of background information about your topic

In the second draft, you must:

· Revise your introduction and background information

· Write 3 - 4 paragraphs that 1) explain how your topic is related to The Joy Luck Club, and 2) provide evidence from the textbook to prove your ideas

· Write a conclusion that restates your thesis and summarizes your main points

· Include a works cited page using APA format

In the final draft, you must:

· Do all of the above

· Show evidence of revision based on teacher and peer feedback

So now, I have to turn my first draft in 12 hours.

I have a request that can I pay as final draft essay price, but I hope you can do it separately, because I know it will spend much time to do it. In fact, I only need first draft. May you just do the first draft for me first, and keep doing the other parts since there is a lot of time to do the second draft and the final draft.
