Creating An Essay Outline And References Pageusing The Four Sources Fr

Creating an Essay Outline and References Page Using the four sources from Forms 1 and 2, you will now create an outline for your 5-paragraph essay. This outline will help you determine what will be in each paragraph, how to use your sources, and whether you need additional research to support your ideas. The goal is to use the quotations and paraphrases you have already selected on Forms 1 and 2, but you may use other sources if you need to as long as they are reliable. Use the format below to type your outline and references page. Complete every section with appropriate information for each of the essay’s five paragraphs, and end with a References list created in APA style. The References list must include your four sources from Forms 1 and 2. Remember to delete the samples on the last page once you add your own references! When adding quotations and paraphrases, keep the following in mind: · Each paragraph of your essay must include at least one quotation or paraphase. · The essay must have at least two paraphrases and at least two quotations. It may have more of either, but it cannot have only quotes or only paraphrases. · You cannot put two quotations in a row. · Each of your four sources needs to be quoted or paraphrased somewhere in the essay. · Source information in the introduction and conclusion will be more about your person in general, and source information in the body paragraphs must be specific to that specific subtopic.

Paper For Above instruction

Introduction

Begin your essay with an engaging sentence that introduces the general topic and captures the reader’s interest. For example, if your essay is about the history of chocolate chip cookies, you might start with a sentence about how the cookie has become a beloved treat worldwide. Next, include a quotation or paraphrase from your Sources 1 or 2 that relates to your person's significance or background, ensuring it is attention-grabbing and not specific to your subtopics. This will serve as an interesting hook. Be sure to cite this source in APA style with a signal phrase and in-text citation. Finally, craft a three-part thesis statement in your own words that clearly states the three main points or subtopics you will discuss in your essay.

Body Paragraph 1: Subtopic

Begin with a topic sentence that introduces the first subtopic of your thesis, in your own words. Without including any sources here, clearly outline what this paragraph will cover. Then, provide a quotation or paraphrase from a reliable source—preferably from Sources 1 or 2—that supports your subtopic. Remember to cite it in APA style with a signal phrase and in-text citation. This evidence should directly relate to the point you are making in this paragraph.

Body Paragraph 2: Subtopic

Start with a topic sentence that introduces the second subtopic, again in your own words. Follow this with a quotation or paraphrase from your sources, ideally from Sources 1 or 2. Ensure that it directly supports your subtopic. Properly cite the source in APA style with a signal phrase and in-text citation. This paragraph will develop your second main point with relevant evidence.

Body Paragraph 3: Subtopic

Open with a topic sentence that discusses the third subtopic of your thesis. Then, include a quotation or paraphrase from your sources that supports this point, cited correctly in APA style. This paragraph should connect tightly to your third key idea and provide supporting evidence for it.

Conclusion

Rephrase your thesis statement in different words and summarize your three subtopics in a single sentence, emphasizing how they support your overall argument. Then, include an impressive final fact or quote about your person—another from Sources 1 or 2—that leaves a lasting impression on the reader. This should be a broad, concluding statement that is not specific to your subtopics and not repeated elsewhere in your paper. Remember to cite it in APA style with a signal phrase and in-text citation.
