Try to use your own VOICE. You will be taught how to write an essay that is for Social Studies or English. The teacher wants to see how you write... and how you think...and what your opinion is. Have some fun with it. You might have some ideas that I've never heard before!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;b&gt;THE ESSAY&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;5 paragraphs - topic WHY HISTORY IS IMPORTANT TO ME / Society&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Paragraph one is short. It could only be one sentence long. It is your thesis statement.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Paragraph 2,3 and 4 should be three different ideas about why history is important to you.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Paragraph 5 is your conclusion.. So "history is important to me because... 1,2,3" ( your ideas restated from the three paragraphs.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;There should be about 17-25 sentences in the whole thing. &lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Looking forward to them!&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Mrs. Capirchio&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/5632632979316150190-3889559214340472070?l=vmskids.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://vmskids.blogspot.com/feeds/3889559214340472070/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://vmskids.blogspot.com/2011/09/september-8th-first-essay.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5632632979316150190/posts/default/3889559214340472070'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/5632632979316150190/posts/default/3889559214340472070'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://vmskids.blogspot.com/2011/09/september-8th-first-essay.html' title='September 8th - FIRST ESSAY'/><author><name>Mrs. P.
