PART I: WRITING APPLICATION

In this homework assignment, you will turn in a 1 page document that
consists of two paragraphs: a paragraph plan and a completed illustration
paragraph. Use a word processor, such as
Microsoft Word, to complete and turn in the assignment. Remember to use proper APA format (Times New
Roman, 12-point font, double-spacing).

Step 1: Choose one of
the following topics or choose your own topic for your illustration paragraph:

o
Ridiculous fads or fashions
o
Good or bad habits
o
Great things in life that are free

o

o
Reasons to take time off before starting
college

Step 2: Create a
paragraph plan.

Remember, all
good paragraphs begin with a topic sentence and then evolve through supporting
ideas and details. Be sure to spend time
on your paragraph plan because it will be the road map you use to create your
paragraph.

Step 3: Write your
illustration paragraph.

Now that you
have selected your topic and created your paragraph plan, write your
paragraph. First, decide whether you
will use a series of events or one extended event to communicate your message
in this paragraph. Be sure to
incorporate a variety of sentence styles to keep the paragraph interesting for
your reader. Finally, be sure to connect
your ideas appropriately, use verbs correctly, and of course use correct
punctuation throughout your paragraph.

Step 4: Save and
submit your assignment.
