Writing Homework Help

Write 3 Paragraphs with the following guidelines. The controversial topic is Pro-Abortion.

Body Paragraph 1: A definition of your controversial topic

• In this body paragraph, you need to explain what exactly your topic is. For example, if my topic was climate change I would make sure to explain what that term meant and any other relevant terms (greenhouse gases, carbon footprint, etc). If your topic is a process, like the death penalty, explain in depth what that process is. Use good sources. We’ll use APA in-text citations, which means after you quote or paraphrase a source put the author and year published in parenthesis. Ex: (Wilson, 2012).

Body Paragraph 2:

• In this body paragraph, you will refer to the concession which is that abortion may be morally wrong to some individuals. Write a paragraph on how the “opposite side” of your argument might make a good point or two. For example, if my argument was that climate change is a man made problem, my Body Paragraph 2 might concede the point that there IS evidence of natural heating and cooling cycles of the earth, so when people say global warming is just natural, they may have a point. Use good sources. We’ll use APA in-text citations, which means after you quote or paraphrase a source put the author and year published in parenthesis. Ex: (Wilson, 2012).

Body Paragraph 3

• In this body paragraph, you will discuss your rebuttal in more detail, which is ultimately women have the right over their bodies and how they decide to go through pregnancy or not. Now you are going to go into a more in depth explanation. Let’s say that I’ve just written a concession paragraph (body paragraph 2) about how the earth does go through natural cooling and heating cycles. MY argument, however, is that climate change is ultimately a man made problem. So in this paragraph I will explain that although some of the cooling and heating cycles are natural, mankind has polluted the earth, water, and air to a point where it’s actively destroying the environment. Use good sources. We’ll use APA in-text citations, which means after you quote or paraphrase a source put the author and year published in parenthesis. Ex: (Wilson, 2012).
