TRIANGLE; The fire that changed America
Directions:
For this short 350-500 word essay an introductory paragraph is not necessary. A brief introductory statement will do. Your body paragraphs should each begin with a general statement followed by specific, detailed evidence, and example(s) that support the opening line. Your next body paragraph answers another aspect of the question with all supporting detail following its opening statement. Two or three of these paragraphs will suffice. Your conclusion is NOT a restating of your previous answers, but an analysis of these various statements and their supporting evidence that leads the argument, and the reader, in a direction ( a conclusion). When you use the ideas or direct words or ideas of author David Von Drehle cite the page number, for example (p 117). You MUST use quotation marks when directly taking words from the book.
