A Visual Representation of Project One

Hello everyone.

I shared in my teaching journal a PowerPoint slide I showed my students last week to explain how to write Project One. I didn't want to give them an outline or a form they could plug information into (ala the five paragraph essay), so I made this:
This seemed to help them get a good grasp of what the essay should be attempting. I did make sure to say that the niche does not need to be an afterthought ("Grammar should be taught in the senior year of high school and freshman year of college. And everyone should get a pony. The End.") after developing an argument. It can be built-in to the paper as a whole.
