Step 5 - Task

Write an essay
You are going to write your own article: 'If I ruled the world'
We call it an essay: a piece of writing that gives the author's own argument.
Writing your essay:
- Think of the topic ‘rule the world’.
- Brainstorm your own ideas.
Think of some ideas or rules that you would introduce. Make a list of your ideas.
- Look at the ideas that you generated.
Choose one of your strongest ideas that support your topic.
- You have chosen one idea. You must expand your reasons and say why they would be beneficial.
- Write your essay in 120-180 words (use the future continuous at least once).
Please note! After writing your essay please do some analysis.
- The essay has a focus throughout.
- The essay has a clear introduction, body and conclusion.
- The essay has no grammatical mistakes.
- See if your arguments are effective:
- What claims do you make?
- Why do they sound good?
- Is it the logic, the sources, the writing, the structure?
- What evidence do you present?
- Why does the evidence sound credible?
- How do you present facts; are your ideas well explained with facts?
