I have to write a bridge for my English essay. It's suppose to come between the hook and your thesis statement.. ? Can some one help me please.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Btw I already have my hook and thesis statement. I just need help on the bridge ! I don't even understand that.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the bridge brings you from one point to the next and helps tie different topics together

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, I know what a bridge is. This is the first time I've worked with a 'bridge' I just need help writing it, maybe? So I can understand it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well what is you hook and thesis statement and i could try to help you write it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hook; Studies show that the sleep pattern for teens shifts a few hours, which means teens naturally stay up later at night and feel more alert in the morning Thesis Statement; If every school day started later, many students would find it easier to stay focused.

Studies show that the sleep pattern for teens shifts a few hours, which means teens naturaly stay up later a night and feel more alert in the morning. So if school days started later it would be easier to focus. I think that should work.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, you have to write a two to four sentence bridge.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

And than you put your hook and thesis statement with the bridge

But Hook; Studies show that the sleep pattern for teens shifts a few hours, which means teens naturally stay up later at night and feel more alert in the morning Thesis Statement; If every school day started later, many students would find it easier to stay focused.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ohh okay well let me see..hmmm okay so you need to connect these 2 statements, right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, you need to write a two to four sentence bridge

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and than connect it all together.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So, do you have any ideas of how to do this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

all I know is a bridge may be characterized by; background information necessary for your reader to understand the topic. explanations of the importance of the topic

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hmmm alright

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So I guess we can just write two to four sentences explaining the importance of sleep ? idk..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A bridge can be a sentence long, but you're asked to do a 2-4 sentence long bridge, try to include some facts about sleeping in the bridge itself thus connecting both your thesis statement and your hook together, to do that you will have to move words around to make the bridge connect them together such as: "Teens need sleep( <----Thesis)because sleep is a very relaxing thing to do(<------ bridge) which helps a student focus more at class, pay more attention the teacher, and earn better grades(<-----hook) then you go on explaining how sleep helps you do those three things in your body paragraph. Remember, This is only a example, not your own hook and thesis :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't need a body paragraph yet. And I already got this ! But thank you for your help (:
