NOTE
THE ESSAY SHOULD BE FIVE PARAGRAPH FOR EACH(athletic vs dress shoes AND a good memory.)
Yourfinal
essay should be about athletic vs dress
shoes. Your other essay should be about a good memory.
Be
specific whenanswering the questions with this outline. The harder
you work with these questions the better your writing is going to be. I would
really focus on these questions and
use them to help your essay. For example, when asked what’s the attention
getter part of your essay, saying the thesis statement isn’t a specific answer.
What makes your thesis intriguing? Be clear here.
