ENGL 062 Week 4 Assignment | Devry University

Week 4: Writing Submission

Developed Paragraph 2

This week, you will compose a new, fully developed paragraph after reading the following short selections assigned on pages 273–278 in Chapter 13 of Common Ground.

"Escaping the Fact-Filled World"

"Why I'm a Gamer"

"With Fantasy, Opportunities are Endless"

The topic for your paragraph will be a fantasy activity, such as video games, fantasy novels, escape rooms, historical reenactments, or fantasy football, to name a few. (If you do not relate to any fantasy activity, you may select another leisure activity of your choice as your topic.)  

This week's graded discussion will help you to narrow your topic, construct a topic sentence, and develop support for your paragraph.

Paragraph Requirements

·         A cover page

·         A minimum length of 100 words

·         A topic sentence that clearly states one reason you like the activity 

·         Adequate examples, other details, or an explanation that supports your reason

Next week, you will add your paragraph to three new paragraphs you will write to create a four-paragraph essay that will include an introduction, two body paragraphs, and a conclusion.

To minimize errors in your work, use the SMART TRAC process illustrated below, and it is recommend you use the tutoring tab of your course menu (or make an appointment with a tutor at DeVryTutors.com) to have your work reviewed by a tutor before you submit it for a grade.
