Writing Notes:

First, turn the page to the description of a perfect six.

Highlight:

"...and its organizational pattern provides for

a logical PROGRESSION OF IDEAS (elaboration)."

In our planning (thinking) we've got

to get one main point (circle) to LEAD

INTO the next one.

Compare

"this"

We've got to think about how one idea CAN LEAD to the next one... we've got to stay on the same road with our thinking.

This is PROGRESSIVE PLANNING!

Cause

which leads to

"this"

That plan takes our reader down

3 separate "roads".

The Original Plan

Bill Gates should come to Jacksonville

It would be a curse to live forever because

it would cause overpopulation, a strain on

the planet's natural resources, and it would

decrease our motivation.

He's successful

He's smart

He can invest in

businesses here

BE A SHOWOFF!!!

Use scenarios, personal stories, imagery, compare/contrast, or detailed explanations to SHOW OFF your triangle's ideas.

Check yourself before you wreck yourself!

1. Count your sentences. Are there at least 8?

2. Did you transition to your next main point at the end of your paragraph?

3. Did you SHOW the reader something? [imagery, a scenario, a personal story, compare/contrast...]

4. Are there any words or phrases you repeated?

scenario/imagery

With an imbalance in the population, we will run out of room for living. The typical family home of 4 has two to three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Eternal life gives us that same family home except 24 people now live in it; that means after a meal of tacos and beans, there are 12 people praying a bathroom is available.

DETAILED EXPLANATION

(1)If eternal life is bestowed upon us all, then we will continue to have additions to our population without the natural number of deaths occurring which balance it out. (2)As it stands now in America, we have almost the same birth rate and mortality rate, therefore the newborns in the maternity wing of Baptist Hospital are multiplying just as rapidly as natural causes and disease are claiming others. (3)When the balance tips towards an extreme, serious measures could be taken like China's birth limits.

birth rate will outstrip the death rate

Make sure your triangles "progress" from one supporting point to the next!

Read the prompt and fill in the answer box

at the top [rectangle] , the circles, and the

connection words.

Now, pick one thesis to add to your notes;

write it down.

Circle the two "main points" in the thesis statement you copied.

Underline the connection words between the two main points.
