Choose one of the following topics on which to write a clear, specific, well-constructed paragraph. Be sure to have a strong topic sentence and adequate development, with examples or full explanation. Do some sort of prewriting, using any method you prefer (on the computer or with pen and paper). Prepare at least one preliminary draft. Then prepare a final draft. Be sure to proofread the printed copy of your final draft carefully. Save the preliminary draft as "Paragraph 1 draft" (without quotation marks) and the final draft as "Paragraph 1 final" (without quotation marks). Thus, you should submit three separate items at the end of class: prewriting, preliminary draft, final draft.
