American Icon Thematic Paragraph

Your American icon introductory paragraph is required in order to complete this assignment.

Read your thesis statement.  Now, conduct a web search where you locate evidence to begin to support the opinion you expressed in your thesis.  Your responsibility when writing an expository essay or when expressing an opinion is to support your point of view, otherwise you’re just honking like a deaf goose.

Once you have located information that is useful for you, bookmark the source as you will be required to write a bibliography.  Use the information to support the expressed opinion from your thesis.  Your paragraph should express:
A.  a topic sentence
B.  at least one opinion
C.  evidence to support your opinion
D.  clarification as to how your evidence confirms your opinion
E.  a conclusive statement

A well-written paragraph uses at least three pieces of evidence to support an expressed opinion.

Your paragraph is valued as a test assessment.  The paragraph should be computer printed, titled and display the MLA heading and standards.  You should also include the internet sites used to obtain the evidence that you used to support your opinion.
