[SOLUTION] Pre-Writing Activity

OrganizationWhen using the Outside-In Essay format, you move an argument from general to specific to general again. It is up to you how many paragraphs you use to accomplish this and what specific time order you choose as well (chronological? start in the present, then go to the past and later the future?). It is also up to you to decide where you place your thesis in the paper (in the intro to tell readers what they will read about? at the beginning of the body paragraphs? or, at the end so readers are in suspense?). Use the following questions/ideas to help you organize the flow of ideas in your paper. Then, write a detailed outline (paragraph by paragraph- including the introduction and conclusion) which includes the sources you will use to prove your ideas on a separate sheet of paper.General-What is the overall topic you are writing about?
