Replacement Class :D

Hello, so today's class was at 8pm-10pm. I came 20 minutes late and Miss Zu was mad at those who came late and we were asked to pay RM1 each. We studied about body paragraph and the conclusion paragraph that night.  


Body paragraphs are the meat of your essay, and as such are the most important component of your essay. In the body paragraphs, you will expand upon and provide support for the theme you introduced in the first paragraph and will provide the details that move that theme forward.


Each paragraph contains:

A topic sentence that expands your theme and makes a transition from the previous paragraph
Development of ideas that support your essay's theme
An ending sentence that wraps up the paragraph and helps to transition into the next paragraph

Conclusion are the sentences or paragraphs that bring a speech, essay, report or book to a satisfying and logical end. The length of a conclusion is generally proportional to the length of the whole text. While a single paragraph is usually all that's required to conclude a standard essay or composition.


 Strategies for Concluding an Essay
Although there are no set formulas for closing, the following list presents several options:
  1. Restate the thesis of your essay, and perhaps your main points.
  2. Mention the broader implications or significance of your topic.
  3. Give a final example that pulls all the parts of your discussion together.
  4. Offer a prediction.
  5. End with the most important point as the culmination of your essay's development.
  6. Suggest how the reader can apply the information you have just imparted.
  7. End with a bit of drama or a flourish. Tell an anecdote, offer an appropriate quotation, ask a question, make a final insightful remark.
