I need at least one source from the novel 1984, it should be well written with 5-6 pages. – HOOK: A few sentences to grab your reader’s attention about the topic of your essay, this cannot actually reference LOTF in any way. It is a few sentences about your TOPIC. – LINK: One sentence to link those first sentences to your book (mention the title and the author and provide a natural transition to the Thesis. – Your thesis: This cannot have the name of the novel or the author. It should not mention any specific characters or symbols from the novel. This is an OVERARCHING ARGUMENT. It should be phrased in very general terms which could be applied to any novel, but you happen to be using LOTF -The Plan of Development (POD) this is where you state your THREE ARGUMENTS which are mini-thesis of themselves. In most cases these should also NOT reference the novel. If you are stating specific characters, events, or symbols those are actually your PROOFS, which you are using to PROVE the point and subsquently the overall thesis. * Do not include any quotes in your introduction even if it is from anothe source-find a different way to be engaging in your HOOK> Body Paragraphs (you will do as many times as needed…once for each major point) – Topic Sentence: Essentially you are restating your first POINT. – An explanation, in your words, of this point if it is not obviuos. -Provide CONTEXT for your upcoming PROOF-explain what is happening in the novel. – The PROOF: This is the direct quote(s) you are using to support your POINT. This must be properly referenced in MLA format. – Your explanation of how that quote proves your point -Transition to your 2nd PROOF. Provide context for this quote as well. -Insert your 2nd quote(s) -Explain how this second citation proves your POINT. -COMMENT: Provide an OVERALL EXPLANATION OF HOW the Point you just proved SUPPORTS YOUR THESIS. If you are repeating yourself here your thesis does not have enough depth. This explanantion shoud focus on the consequences or outcome of your point.
