Microthemes


            So far, I am feeling really good about my draft. Initially, when I sat down to start writing this microtheme I was focusing too much on the point of view from a persuasive essay which it is not. My topic definitely works for me because of how passionate I am about this topic. I'm having trouble forming the second paragraph and making a very objective view point. I am looking at the example microtheme and seeing how the edits morphed the paper into a great microtheme to figure out what I need to do. I feel that I have a better handle on this microtheme now but there is still a long way to go. 
       
     Example Paper:


        Edits:
  - Use a different word for "Five-paragraph essay" this has become too redundant.
  - Keep it to one question in the second paragraph.
  - Change additional questions into statements: "Is it because there are so many other important things to high school students that they don't have time or interest to learn this technique?"--> There are so many other important things to high school students that they really do not have the interest or time to learn this technique.
