A link to the Five Paragraph Essay we constructed with Ms. Fossum

I have mentioned that you need to go and look at the 'concessionary essay' several times. Here is a link to that model.

The introduction on the model consists of only the thesis statement, your introduction should be more fleshed out and end with your own relevant thesis statement.

We ran out of time when we constructed the model so it does not have a conclusion. The most important thing to remember about the conclusion is that you should not introduce any new information in it.
