Question

Can anyone help me do an outline for a research essay On Misuse of the internet

Answer 1

Here is the Thesis statement
Children should be monitored closely on what their doing on the internet because their can be a lot of stuff on there that kids don't need to see.

Answer 2

Your thesis is too vague. This is fine: "Children should be monitored closely on what their doing on the internet" but your 'because' is the vague part. What 'stuff' is there that "kids don't need to see?"

Answer 3

I copied and pasted, you have the wrong 'their' in the first segment. Should be they're*

Answer 4

Easy way to remember:
there = location (I went to there)
their = possessive (their cat, their house, etc)
they're = they are

Answer 5

Ok

Answer 6

I need help on the outline tho

Answer 7

Your thesis is a part of your outline. It's actually the first thing, so let's start there.

Answer 8

ok

Answer 9

Your thesis is basically your argument, or what you want the reader to walk away understanding. That's why it has to be strong, direct, and understandable.

Answer 10

Children should be monitoried closely on the internet.

Answer 11

Why

Answer 12

The internet can be very dangerous for children.

Answer 13

There are many things on the internet that children should'nt see like innaproiate pictures, or language.

Answer 14

That's a start. When you're arguing something, you need to have evidence to support your claim.

Answer 15

For example: Dogs are the best pets because they are cute, protect you and your loved ones, and they are loyal.

Answer 16

So in my first body paragraph I'll show pictures of cute dogs, maybe a diagram of cute puppies, and then talk about how cute they are.

In my second body paragraph I'll show statistics of how dogs save lives and keep their owners safe.

In my third body paragraph, I'll talk about how they're man's best friend because even when they get lost they'll find their way home by smell.

Answer 17

Is that how the outline should be done then ?

Answer 18

A thesis contains specific points to support your argument. You did that by saying, 'inappropriate pictures and language.'

Answer 19

Your outline should look like this:

Essay Title

Hook (Optional):

Thesis:

Body Paragraph 1
Topic Sentence
-Supporting Evidence (1,2,3,...)

Body Paragraph 2
Topic Sentence
-Supporting Evidence (1,2,3,...)

Body Paragraph 3
Topic Sentence
-Supporting Evidence (1,2,3,...)

Conclusion
-Restate thesis

Answer 20

Your hook is the first sentence of your essay. It should draw in the reader and introduce the topic you're talking about in a creative way.

Answer 21

Topic sentences are the first sentences of your body paragraphs. Your body paragraphs are the paragraphs which support each of your points in your thesis.

So take my thesis for example.

Body Paragraph One
Topic Sentence:
-Dogs are the best pets because of how cute they are.
Supporting Evidence:
-Here is a picture a Golden Retriever puppy
-Note how his face looks like a baby
-Loppy ears, roundish face, etc.
