Can someone give me a suggestion on a good leading sentence. My topic is teenage pregnancy

OpenStudy (snopet):

What is your complete thesis?

OpenStudy (kaylieanime):

On top of the thesis, what type of writing is this?

OpenStudy (flowers):

A newspaper articles

OpenStudy (flowers):

I thinking of a good leading that would grad readers attentions

OpenStudy (kaylieanime):

Is it Informative with stating facts? Or is it ''defend your side' argumentative?

OpenStudy (flowers):

Stating facts

OpenStudy (snopet):

Alright so, you want it to be something that will grab reader attention, all the while sharing what your article will be about. (brief) Example: "Teen pregnancy is an epidemic that seems to be infecting more and more youth every year."

OpenStudy (snopet):

@KaylieAnime was just about to write that my example was a very rough start, and @flowers could we hear a little more about what your piece is about?

OpenStudy (kaylieanime):

(An epidemic is a widespread and infectious disease. Pregnancy can cause std's if not careful) I have seen some successful pieces starting with a statistic and branching off from there. Or using emotion, then adding a fact.

OpenStudy (kaylieanime):

(Pregnancy is not an epidemic)

OpenStudy (flowers):

Sure Im talking about the countries that dont have least risk and a greatest risk of teen pregnancy. I did asia where teen pregnancy have the lowest rate throughout the whole world. the united state have the greatest risk of teen pregnancy

OpenStudy (kaylieanime):

Which part of Asia? I'm curious

OpenStudy (flowers):

Japan and Thailand

OpenStudy (kaylieanime):

That is interesting. Those two areas have strong morals (perhaps religious at times) and enforce laws well

OpenStudy (flowers):

Ikr but the presidency rate is about 4%

OpenStudy (kaylieanime):

Looking at articles and gathering ideas (such as tone and organization) will be a big help. Have you given any thought on how the thesis will sound like?

OpenStudy (kaylieanime):

Remember, any plagiarism will cause severe punishments, even if it is changing a few words.

OpenStudy (flowers):

Like a serious matter A shocking matter Ik that copying is bad The thing i copy was the numbers It would be not smart if i made up the numbers rate :)

OpenStudy (kaylieanime):

Yes. Citing sources well is also needed.

OpenStudy (kaylieanime):

Anything to add? @snopet

OpenStudy (flowers):

Should i say Teen are feeling head over heals but can they deal with babies over stress

OpenStudy (snopet):

Try to make the idea that you are trying to convey clearer.

OpenStudy (snopet):

Also, this is just some general for writing, try to create an outline. It will help you organize all the ideas and facts that you want to include into a coherent essay.

OpenStudy (flowers):

Already did Everything is finished I just need a lead that would grab a readers attention

OpenStudy (kaylieanime):

To your thesis you did have a creative start but it could be improved. Say: "All around the world teens start and break relationships in hope to find the one. However, teen pregnancy is not the best way to determine a future spouse."

OpenStudy (kaylieanime):

Don't use my example though. I want your mind to think.

OpenStudy (flowers):

Thanks dont worry I needed an example

OpenStudy (snopet):

And make sure to include a bridging statement that will tie your hook into your thesis! Good luck! (:

OpenStudy (kaylieanime):

Glad @snopet and I could help ^_^

OpenStudy (flowers):

Thanks guy
