Target: Introduce the Cause and Effect Mode


1. Read the Bedford Reader chapter on Cause and Effect. (15 min) Take notes on any important details you think you will need to remember to write an effective paper in this mode. 

Post it on this Padlet: 




Review together (5-10 min)

2. Read an example of an MLA formatted paper: "The Urban Neanderthal" (10 min)

In groups: 
  • What stands out to you about this essay? 
  • What is the writer's thesis?
  • Are the causes or the effects emphasized?
  • What evidence is most effective?
  • How is the paper organized? do a rough outline.
