Eleventh graders,

In the last few weeks of school, you will be writing a 3-page essay that can deal with the topic of your choice. However, you will also have to meet the expectations and requirements of the assignment. The general requirements are as follow:

Write an expository essay that discusses a topic related to injustice. By injustice I mean, pick a topic that discusses something that you thought was unfair. The topic can be somewhat personal in nature, but cannot be written in the first person. You must use specific details to support your explanation of that injustice. Additionally, you must use at least 3 outside sources (not you) to back up your thesis.
