Today during class we talked about the final step in creating our research papers, conclusions. Mr. Rivers said that this isn't the most important part of your essay because you are just summarizing what was stating in your body paragraphs. We talked about not starting your conclusion paragraph off with the following statements:
- In conclusion
- To conclude
- In summary
- At the end of the day
- When all is said and done
- When the smoke clears
- Obviously
Conclude- Looking BACKWARDS and FORWARDS
- Context
- Content
- Characters
“Backwards”- What does the analysis prove about…? How has your essay evolved from the intro?
“Forwards”- What are the RESULTS of the argument? “What will happen IF…?” (+?-?)
This picture will help you understand what you don't do while writing your conclusion paragraph.
