- Thesis statement

- Paragraph (approximately 1/2 page). This paragraph will either be an introduction to a hypothetical paper on the selected poem ( background ideas, thesis, poa) or a body paragraph (topic sentence with 3 examples, where, what, how, why, model. )

For the Poetry Prospectus 1-4 Assignment, two of your poems will have an introduction as their paragraphs, and two will have a support paragraph.)

The Prospectus 1-4 assignment is not likely to be due until the second week in October, so please do not panic; you have plenty of time!
