*Teaching the Five-paragraph Essay: Where to Start

Thursday, May 31, 2018 at 2:30 PM–4:00 PM EDT

LL6: Middlesex East

Session Abstract

The five-paragraph essay is the fundamental form for academic writing. Most textbooks that purport to teach writing skills are densely packed with terminology that is inaccessible to beginning and struggling writers. This paper offers a student-friendly starting point and organizational template for beginning and struggling writers to experience immediate success.
