Post your working thesis and your strongest body paragraph.

Signify your working thesis by including it in bold type and italicize the topic sentence of your body paragraph.

Your paragraph should include at least three examples of paraphrases and/or quotations (there should be at least one of each) with correct citations in APA format.

After the body paragraph, be sure to include reference page citations for the paraphrased and cited sources. Then answer the following three questions:

Explain the connection between the topic sentence and your working thesis. Would this connection be clear to someone without your explanation? If so, why? If not, how can you modify your topic sentence and/or thesis statement to make this connection more clear?

Explain the choice of reference material. How do the references support the topic sentence? Would this connection be clear to someone without your explanation? if so, why? If not, what information should you add to the paragraph to make this connection more clear?

Does the paragraph contain any unnecessary information? Does everything in it work to support the topic sentence? What information could be added or removed? In essence, you are being asked to evaluate the cohesion of your paragraph.

Note any other specific challenges faced or successes experienced when writing this paragraph or completing this discussion post.
