Practice learning parts of an outline

TermDefinition
Hook Grab reader’s attention. Ask a ?, state an interesting fact, or make a personal connection!
Transition Give author(s) full names, text titles as they are written in prompt/texts, and character names (if given). Talk about what both stories have in common or in contrast.
Thesis Statement This tells reader what your essay will be about. Thesis statements should be specific & arguable. Should have language and wording directly from Task/Topic of R.A.F.T. and/or the prompt.
Topic Sentence Tells your reader what paragraph is about/the main point of your paper. RESTATE wording from your Thesis. Use transition statements to keep organized – One reason, First, For example, One example, To begin with, etc.
Claim Tell why TS is important to your essay/thesis. Give details to help reader understand. Be SPECIFIC!
Evidence Prove your claim! Cite directly from the texts or paraphrase using EBT (ex. The text states, the author writes, on page ___, etc.) and Parenthetical Citations (authorlastname page/paragraph//line #) ex. (Smith 14).
Reasoning Explain how Evidence proves your Claim. Use wording from BOTH claim and evidence sections.
Link A concluding sentence that links the main point in one paragraph to the next. Helps essay flow. Only need for more than 1 body paragraph.
Restate Thesis State your Thesis Statement again. Try to write it in a different way so that you don’t bore your reader.
Wrap Up DROP THE MIC! Wrap up any loose ties and make a connection with the reader. Use your hook question and turn it into a universal truth - something that everyone can agree or disagree on. Try using Next time..., Think about..., Remember..., etc.
