• This essay describes the difference between being a student and being a scholar.
• School board policy should be changed in order to implement cell phones into the curriculum.
Riddles
• Get your reader’s attention with a challenging thought. • What’s plain, and boring? What makes all students in a school building look the same and lose their individuality? If you guessed UNIFORMS, you’re correct!
Provides statistics or facts that startles readers to pull them into your story. • Example Can you believe that over 90% of students polled at our school are dissatisfied with school lunch, but only 5% are willing to pack their own lunches?
A killer conclusion with a clincher statement
• In conclusion, over 95% of parents polled are in agreement with a school wide uniform policy. Uniforms allow students to be who they are, not what they wear. After all, shouldn’t school be about academics rather than apparel? It’s time our nation got back to reading, writing, and arithmetic….not Baby Phat, Apple Bottom, and FUBU.
Quotations
• Conversational ―Mom, I’ve signed up to fight for my country!‖ • Famous Quote
"War is nothing without a solider to fight it." - Unknown
