Below is the three step model to support you as you write your conclusion. I know that all of you are going to write STELLAR essays and I cannot wait to read them. ALL of you are promising writers and you all have your own unique writing style. Someday, I will buy your novel or poetry anthology collection at Barnes and Nobles. : )
My famous 421 authors, please read below...
}Step 1- State 3 examples of how W.D.M. and the movie proved the point of your thesis.
}Step 2- In a short sentence, explain the purpose that the author and the director of the movie (Chazz Palminteri) wanted the audience to see or learn about the theme.
}Step 3- Think outside the box. If WDM and Chazz Palminteri were your teacher, what would he say to you about life and your theme?
Sample Conclusion:
The racial and social divides, going into hiding and being caught in the middle are three ways in which Myers and Palminteri demonstrate human misunderstandings. Myers and Palminteri wanted their audience to understand the depths of the human mind and their behaviors. They used real life situations and conflicts rather than unrelatable problems to describe settings and people. If Myers and Palminteri were my teacher, they would say that in life we should take the time to know people’s hearts before we judge them by their actions.
If you are having difficulty figuring out how to begin your conclusion, please feel free to use the sentence starters below.
