Follow the directions below for the completion of the body paragraphs revision assignment for Unit VII. If you have questions, please email your professor for assistance.
Purpose: The purpose of this assignment is to revise the body of your academic argumentative research paper, which you created a draft of in Unit VI.
Description: In this assignment, you will revise the three to four body paragraphs you wrote in Unit VI. The following requirements must be included in the assignment:
Body Paragraphs: You will revise the body section of your paper based on feedback received from your professor in Unit VI. Please review here the guidelines for the body section of your research paper: This section will include three to four paragraphs comprised of five to seven sentences each. Each paragraph should be between 150-200 words. At a minimum, this portion of the paper should be 450-600 words (for three to four paragraphs); a body section of this length will meet the minimum requirements of the assignment. Revisions must be substantive and should be made in accordance with the direction given by the professor’s feedback. The following components must be included in each body paragraph (in the following order).
Sentence 1: Point/reason sentence: This topic sentence will contain one of your reasons.
Sentence 2: Explanation: In this sentence, you will provide information that further develops or explains Sentence 1.
Sentence 3: Illustration: This sentence introduces evidence that supports the reason that is presented in Sentence 1.
Sentence 4: Explanation of the illustration: Because the evidence does not necessarily stand on its own, you need to provide explanation so that the reader will understand how you interpreted the evidence to come to your reason.
Sentences 5-6: Second illustration and explanation (optional): You may choose to include a second piece of evidence that is then followed by an explanation.
Last Sentence: Transition: In this sentence, you will signal to the reader that you will be moving on to another point in the next paragraph. You do this to ease the movement from one point to another.
Be sure to include the introduction and literature review you have already created and revised.
Use APA conventions to cite and reference all sources used to support your argument.

PROFESSOR INSTRUCTIONS:
Going off the topic which you have chosen. Your job is to write a paper about it. Be sure to discuss the relevant information surrounding your topic and since you’re giving me an argumentative paper, be sure to support yourself. Support your thesis with academic sources.
FOR EXAMPLE, if you’re discussing Global warming and that it exists, give me some information given by those against the Global Warming theory and using research, prove them wrong. Or, if you are discussing Video Game violence, provide discussion on what both sides are saying.
Furthermore, make sure you include a counterpoint/rebuttal section in the essay (usually before the conclusion) that includes what any opponents of your thesis/argument would say. Use sources/citation for this side of the discussion as well. Then, using sources (again), talk about why they would be incorrect/wrong. Also, be sure to avoid using first person perspective in this essay.
Technical Specifications:
• Paper must be TYPED.
• 12 point font, Times New Roman
• 8-10 pages long (This does NOT include a Works Cited Page)
• Double Spaced

I have attached the teachers document of possible expectations for this personal essay assignment. I would like the personal essay written about how my father raised my our relationship and how it helped mold me into the individual I am today.
My father’s personalities.
My father is independent, strong willed, extremely smart (even though he did not attend college, graduated HS), self made, outgoing, can strike up conversation with anyone, positive about everything, can be stoic in intense/tragic situations to be strong for everyone else, he is all about communication, honesty, responsible , determined, persistent, fearless, optimistic, reliable, dependable, humble, sociable, fair and dedicated to his family.
My personality traits at the young age of 18 are not quite my fathers, yet! I am still young but have spent my entire life as my dad’s sidekick. I feel I grew up somewhat shy, but over the last 2 years have become more outgoing with people and social settings. I am respectful, loyal, optimistic, not always as independent as I should be but working on that everyday. I am adventurous, helpful, respectful and always honest.
Please let me know if there is anything else I need to provide to avoid any revisions.
