Answer 2

Hun, you are asking a question about which whole college courses are formed. There is no simple answer.
But here are some clues:
1. Read the book....more than once.
2. Be aware of the emotions and thought processes that come to you as you read. These will give you fuel for your essay.
3. Relate your essay to the main theme of the book. Don't chase rabbits by getting into long descriptions of characters and plots.
4. Don't be afraid to let your own opinions show through your writing but don't be dogmatic or abusive with your ideas.
5. close your essay by expressing some positive reflection which the book has brought to your mind, such as a better understanding of the history of race relations in this society.
Good Luck!!!

Here is a list of a few things to try

Try not to express opinions what so ever! (i.e. "I thought Scout and Jem were the best characters in the story.")

Start off the introductory paragraph with something like; "Harper Lee's "Too Kill a Mockingbird" was a contriversal novel for it's time."

Try to put in qoutes from the story and add the page numbers to them.

Try to use big and ellaborate words. For instance instead of saying, "Harper Lee's "To Kill a Mocking Bird was a very good book." Try, "Harper Lee's "To Kill a Mocking Bird" was an exciting and captivating book." Of course I don't advise to put in opinions of course. If needed use a thesaurus.

Miscellaneous observations on a topic are not enough to make an accomplished academic essay. An essay should have an argument.
When--as is usually the case--an assigned topic does not provide you with a thesis ready-made, your first effort should be to formulate as exactly as possible the question(s) you will seek to answer in your essay.
There are many ways in which any particular argument may be well presented, but an essay's organization--how it begins, develops, and ends--should be designed to present your argument clearly and persuasively.

Answer 5

For that I would have to know your english teacher, but its a safe bet that if you actually put some thought into it, you'll be better off than everyone else in your class.

Another thing I've found is that you should include some sort of idea about the book that is a little bullshitty. Then, the teachers tend to ignore everything else and simply debate you, forgetting that they're supposed to be grading you.

Answer 6

Like I said before, use a lot of big vocabulary. Grown folks like it when children or teens use logical vocabulary just remeber to use a lot in your essay. If you don't know what a certain word means than just look it up in a dictory or on the computer at www.ask.com.

Answer 7

Great Book, Great Movie.... Great Topic. You are lucky to be writing an essay on this book in particular. Follow the advice above, it is sound and good advice, but please, oh please use complete sentences. Make sure that your tenses are consistent, and never assume that your reader has read the book. Your reader should learn from your essay what the book may or may not contain .

Answer 8

putting personality into your writing without putting too much opinion is a great way to keep people interested.
