• Write a conclusion for an expository essay.

Opening:

1. 4/20:  Freewrite 
Key Question: What is the role of advertising in the lives of youth?

Review your notes from Monday, write for five minutes explaining why you think it matters that you are aware of the role that advertising plays in your life.



Work Period:
2. Review the format of an expository paragraph
(Projected from SBD 2.10)

3. What do you notice that helps you understand what to do in an paragraph outline?

4. How will you expand this outline to include more than one body paragraph?

Go Online and Open Two Tabs:
      1. OFFICE 365: Create a new MS Word document.
      2. Open SBD to Activity 2.10

Think: What are two or three key ideas you want to explain about the role of advertising in the lives of youth?  List them.

Thesis: What is your opinion about how advertising affects today's youth?

What details have you collected that support your conclusion?  What do you have to say about those details?

Create an outline ONLINE that includes your subtopics, the details that support your subtopics, and the conclusions you have reached about each subtopic.  (Use SBD activities to locate details from texts - Note the authors names and article titles in your outline).

Tomorrow, after you finish your outline, you'll conduct any additional research you need, and you'll write a conclusion, to make sure you have a strong sense of what you feel MATTERS the MOST about advertising in the lives of youths.
