Invasive Species Project: Update

Students are to word process their first drafts of the species essay over the weekend. If possible please assist in this process by attaching a copy in an email or sending it in via a flash drive. Print outs are optional.

The four paragraph essay includes:

---introduction.... identity and perspective of the species (its purpose and place in nature); the first paragraph begins with a must read lead sentence and ends with the theme sentence or thesis (what is the writer's opinion or solution to this invasive species problem)

---second paragraph explains the problem....how is this species hurting Florida

---third paragraph describes the solution and explains the theme sentence

---fourth paragraph is a summary of the main points of the first three paragraphs. Since the reader understands the problem now he/she will agree with your solution.
