Week 4 – Short Written Response
Write a two-paragraph response to the following prompt.
You will need to have read/watched the assigned course material and films in order to address these substantively:
How do the films you watched this week relate to the spirit and cultural issues of the time period in which they were made?
How do the films differ from the ones we have been watching during the previous two weeks?
Use italics or underlining for movie titles and cite your references.
Support your claims with the specific vivid examples from the assigned films.
Pattern for Body Paragraphs
Effective body paragraphs are important in all types of writing. Your body paragraphs guide your reader through the paper by helping to explain, substantiate, and support your thesis statement or argument. Each body paragraph should discuss one major point or idea and can be divided into three parts: claim, evidence, and conclusion.
*Evidence = your specific detailed example(s) from the film.
Claim: This is also sometimes called a topic sentence. This will be your way of announcing the main point of your paragraph. The topic sentence should present a subpoint of the thesis and tell the reader exactly what your paragraph will be about.
Evidence: Evidence is how you support or back up your claims. Your evidence can be based on what you’ve learned from the course material, and this is crucial: your detailed, specific examples from the film.
Concluding Observation: Your concluding sentences are your way of bringing the paragraph to a satisfactory close by wrapping up the information. A paragraph conclusion often explains how the evidence supports your claim and/or the main thesis in your paper.
If your paragraph is missing any of these three elements, it may sound choppy and/or incomplete. If you have a paragraph that does not have solid supporting evidence, that paragraph will seem incomplete.
