You will need to bring a rough draft (typed) of the INTRODUCTION and FIRST BODY PARAGRAPH of your Colonial Author's paper. You may have your body paragraph be on any of the three authors that we will eventually write on.
Make sure to:
- Establish context in the introduction
- Have a clear and effective topic sentence
- Focus on the analysis: How is that specific device example persuasive?
