    Good afternoon sir. This is Trace Thomas. I'm having a little trouble with the paper. What does it mean when I have to "Identify and explain three or more key points?" I would appreciate the help.

      If you’re in my Tues, Thursday class I would have gone over the prompts with you already. It’s a comparison and contrast essay. There’s three prompts, chose one. I will be available on Tuesday in class for more help.

      So, if for example, I chose the first prompt revolving around the 5 elements of fiction. Would the "three or more key points" be on the 5 elements or be on something else?

    Hello sir, this is Nancy Lopez from your 10 am class on Tuesday and Thursday. I have a question about the essay. For the essay does it have to be about gender, race, or could it be about anything we think about the story we choose.

      It can be from something we read but you have to make an argument out of it, and follow my template for your intro, thesis, subjects , and academic research.
