Essay Structure

 
Thesis Statements
A thesis statement is your main point of your paper. How do you make a good one? How does it focus your paper?
 
Introductions/Conclusions
The hardest parts of the paper seems to be the beginning and the end. (April's tip: write them last.)
 
Paragraphs
What goes into a paragraph? How do you know how to divide them?
 
Transitions
Getting from point A to point Z quickly isn't the mark of genius. Getting there without losing the readers...that's the trick!
 
Paper organization
Papers are read linearly, though the composition process can be scattered. In what order should information be grouped to make life easiest for the reader?
