i just need some ideas for an essay... any ideas?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what type of essay?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have to write an editorial about an issue that confronts your school or community

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You could do an essay about the pros/cons of school uniforms

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah that's not a bad idea

OpenStudy (wwhitlock):

Editorials take one side, so don't do pros and cons. What subject do you have a definite opinion about? Boys wearing their pants too low? Ditzy cheerlears? A local band? The fries at McDonalds?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk for the community part...at the end of my street their making it a dead end for the creek to go across it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Idk if that will work

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What other issues are your community/school facing?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well I just got homeschooled so I don't keep at up with the stuff that goes on at the school but back to the dead end thing they are cutting across my friends yard and cutting the park in half and it pretty small already

OpenStudy (wwhitlock):

Sounds like a topic you have a little passion for. I'd start by listing all the reasons that cutting across is not a good thing. Then think of a solution to the problem. A good editorial doesn't just complain, it tries to sway opinion. Use your list to write the body. You can start with something like" I watch the park being destroyed every day. or similar. Then go through you reasons. Then offer your solution, and explain why it's better than what exists.
