In the body paragraphs, you will want to • thoroughly explain all your ideas, • make every sentence clear and understandable to the reader • not use any contractions, • not use the words you, your, yours, • use the literary present tense of verbs to talk about your story. For example, the boy walks through the house, not “walked”; or the poem is about a young boy, not “was.” 6. Back up your ideas in your body paragraphs with quotations from the story. Put quotation marks around the quotations. After the quotation, put the page number in parenthesis. Be sure to lead into the quotation before giving the quotation.

Critical Thinking Essay Your task for this essay is to define critical thinking; therefore, you are in essence composing a definition essay.

Most physical objects have a definition about which most people agree. 1. Most people will agree on what trees, windows, computers, and pencils are in general. 2. These objects all have specific physical properties that most people can agree on through the use of their physical senses. B. However, abstract terms, such as love, pain, or patriotism, have different meanings for different individuals because such terms play on people’s feelings more than their physical senses. C. The definition essay provides a personal, extended definition of such terms by linking or comparing the term to a previous definition and by illustrating how that term should be applied. II. Setting up the definition essay A. Your topic- critical thinking- has been chosen for you. 1. Since such essays are personal in nature, you may use first person tone of voice. B.

Points one-three. 1. Explain a critical element of how critical thinking is used by individuals or its benefits/purpose. 2. Example to illustrate that point or use of an outside source to support. 3.
