Homework 6/7/ and 6/8 and Academic Vocab
Essay Prompt:
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.
