Paragraph Writing

Hi All,

Today in class we finished learning about literary/persuasive paragraph writing.  You were given a topic and asked to start your paragraph outline.

Homework:

Complete your paragraph outline for MONDAY.  If you want to start a draft, you can bring that as well.

Paragraph topic: Discuss John Purcell's personality traits that make him a poor father in the short story “The Father,” by Hugh Garner.

**Don't forget that your topic sentence must offer an opinion.

Monday will be spent turning outlines and drafts into full paragraphs and adding strong transitions.
