4.2.8 Write: Prepare a Research Project, Part II Writing guide English 11 Sem 1 Name: Lucy Lilly Date: 1/4/2019 Expand the outline you wrote in Lesson 1 about the American Dream into an argumentative research essay. As in most essays, you'll need to include an introduction, body, and conclusion. You'll also need to support your claim with evidence. Your evidence will come from sources that you researched in Lesson 1, although you should feel free to seek out new sources if you need them. Take special care to integrate your sources correctly ? whether you're quoting them or paraphrasing them ? so that you avoid plagiarism. You want to make it obvious which words and ideas are your own and which come from sources. In-text citations help you make this distinction.

Arrangement AP Lang & Comp Mrs. Brubaker Name __________________________________ Another element of rhetoric is the organization of a piece, what classical rhetoricians called ?arrangement.? Whether you?re analyzing a text or writing your own, consider how the essay and its individual paragraphs or sections are arranged. Is the text organized in the best possible way in order to achieve its purpose? An essay always has a beginning, middle and end: an introduction, developmental paragraphs of the body, and conclusion. But HOW a writer structures the argument within that framework depends upon his intended purpose and effect. In the following sections, we?ll look at a formal classical model of arrangement; then we?ll examine rhetorical patterns of development.
