Arrangement


     This chapter shows how to arrange an essay effectively.  I still struggle to write essays in English because I am a foreigner from South Korea.  Yet, I learned many things while I was reading this chapter.  This book uses many examples to show how to organize an essay, which I like.  It really helps me a lot to understand. It showed the basic process of how to build my writing.
     Most of all, an essay should have a purpose. Narration essays, for example, and cause and effect essays can be written in different patterns.  Then, this chapter shows how to write the introduction, body, and conclusion paragraphs.
     I learned how I can put the thesis statement in the introduction, how to support the main topic in the body paragraphs, and how to restate the thesis statement in the conclusion. There are many examples, such as transition words, types of support, and many exercises which I can practice.
     I think the most important point in this reading is build up a formal outline.  I think it will help a lot when having a hard time writing.  I hope I can finish this English class successfully through these effective methods.
