Hey, how do I download it?
This is a warmer, and there is nothing to download. It's just an idea for your lesson, not a worksheet.
When students are writing essays, it’s helpful to review on the board the basic outline an essay. Making the process as interactive as possible is helpful. Choose a simple topic just to focus on the process: e.g., cats and dogs. Review with the students how to take a position on the topic: e.g., which animal makes the better house pet (the thesis) and support the thesis with various reasons and examples (the body).
Ask for their help in completing the outline on the board. This process clarifies the sometimes confusing and counterintuitive structure of an essay in an interactive manner.
