  3. Informative Essay: An Informative Essay educates your reader on a topic. You are not trying to present an opinion or persuade your reader. You are informing or educating the reader. Similar to the last essay: Intro paragraph, 2 body paragraphs, conclusion paragraph Your essay MUST include TEXT EVIDENCE!

  4. Intro Let’s take a closer look: HOOK Example: Is fruit really the answer we have been looking for? Fruit is tasty and good for your health. “Apples” is a book about a healthy fruit, written by Sarah Gomez.Similarly, a poem, “Oranges”, written by Tai Minus gives us evidence of health and energy. Overall, both fruits are important examples of how fruit is good for your health.

  5. Essay Layout: Prompt: Donna O’Meara of “Donna O’Meara: Volcano Lady” and Margaret Bourke-White of “Margaret Bourke-White: Fearless Photographer” were both motivated to do something other people saw as impossible. They refused to be manipulated into one way of thinking or living. Write an informative essay explaining what drives both women to respond, take action, or make a decision when there were no guidelines to help them. Justify your response by citing and explaining text evidence from both articles. Have students complete an organizer to gather supporting details for their response, which will be drafted in the next lesson seed.
