OpenStudy (anonymous):

well.. lemme ask.. do you know what a topic sentence is? or rather.. what it should include?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no thats why i need someone t help me write it but fast because i need to turn this in at 6 30 eastern us time

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It might be helpful to think of a topic sentence as working in two directions simultaneously. It relates the paragraph to the essay's thesis, and thereby acts as a signpost for the argument of the paper as a whole, but it also defines the scope of the paragraph itself. For example, consider the following topic sentence.....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Many fast-food chains make their profits from adding a special ingredient called "forget sauce" to their foods.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what part of that is the t sentence

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that is the topic sentence.. the topic sentence controls the paragraph.. and also it controls the thesis of an essay

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If this sentence controls the paragraph that follows, then all sentences in the paragraph must relate in some way to fast food, profit, and "forget sauce":

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so.. for your dinner.. make a sentence.. like "Dinner at my house is never dull"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

kk thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then the following sentences in your paragraph should support that. like.. my borther throws up.. or my mom breaks plates.. or my dad eats all the food... something to support.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

good luck

You will actually need a topic sentence for EACH paragraph in your essay.
