Liam's essay

I'm going to discuss how Pompeii is an unusual area. I would like to visit because because it is unusually different. Then about Pompeii's historic sensation, and about touristic sites, and related information. I will end it with my conclusion.

Pompeii is very unusual. There is a modern and an ancient sides of the city. You can discover the discovered part of the city which was destroyed by the volcanic eruption, in 79 AD. Then there is the modern beautiful side of the city, which is typical Italian. This area is rare.

Pompeii has a different history, in 79 AD a pyroclastic flow unexpectedly hit Pompeii, and many other parts of Italy.

It killed and injured thousands, and buried the whole city.

Exploring Pompeii is now popular. Many archeologists come to excavate, and explore the sites in the destruction, and many treasures have been found. Tourists can rent or stay in a home or a hotel. You can live and explore Mount Vesuvius's many wonders. There is still fear in Pompeii.

Besides all the fear and de struction, Pompeii is beautiful. Tourists visit each day. There are

great sites, food , and homes. I would love to visit Pompeii.

My favorite book, by far is Cherub. It hooks you right away with all the crime. Has a clear and good point. An is extremely funny. By the end of this essay you will believe me on every thing I said.

The action hooks you with in seconds. With all the crime and stealing, It’s almost asking you to read more. You get that scared felling inside when you’re reading and your favorite character is getting threatened to be killed by a knife. You feel like you’re in the action with the characters on the mission. That’s how hooked you are.

Cherubs point is as clear as 20x20 vision. From reading the first 40 pages of book #1 you already know what this is all about. Undercover children trying to stop the bad guys but these aren’t any children they are highly skilled and train daily.

The hummer in Cherub is so funny you almost fall off your chair. To prep you up after a scary scene the kids will start joking around and you feel better. The funniest scene yet was when Lauren face planted her trainer. I guarantee you will be smiling in parts of Cherub.

I hope you’re convinced that Cherub hooks you right away. Has a good and very clear point. An is extremely funny. Cherub is by far my favorite book.

A Job that interests me

Before you even think about playing in the NBA you have to ask yourself a few questions. Am I fit enough to constantly move for about 30 minutes? Do I love basketball enough to play it as my job? Do I want to travel to different arenas almost every three days? Who wouldn’t want to play basketball as their job?

Am I fit enough to constantly move for 30 minutes? I could easily constantly move for 30 minutes because I have a personal trainer and I workout by myself almost everyday after school. Training would be an absolute piece of cake for me because everyday after school I play a different sport. Now staying fit would also be manageable because I think and eat healthy. I would be extremely happy to stay fit.

Do I love basketball enough to play it as my job? I would love to play basketball as my job. To do what I love to and get paid for it would be a dream comes true. To play basketball and get paid for it would definitely be something I would be interested in doing.

Do I want to travel almost every three days? To travel in a private airplane with all my teammates would be amazing. Being in a different arenas every three days would be great. Flying to different arenas every three days would be no threat to me.

I am fit, love basketball and would love to travel a lot. Who wouldn’t want to play basketball in the NBA? I know I would be very interested to play basketball as my job.

How to Help a Family Affected by a Fire

When a tragedy happens in a neighborhood, especially a fire, everyone wants to help. The big question is how? There are different levels of how you could help. You could send food, raise money, or even let them stay in your home.

Sending food to a family who just suffered a traumatic event is an amazing mitzvah. When a family has just encountered a blazing fire, sending food may no sound like much, but it is. You could send a fruit basket, vegetables from your garden, home baked cookies, or maybe even a warm lasagna.

When a family has just lost their home to a fire, every penny helps. Maybe the family doesn’t want to seem like they need money, but if you were in their position you wouldn’t be throwing your money around. What you can do, is raise money from the whole community for the family. Then the family wouldn’t feel the need to ask for money.

When a house gets burned down, the family obviously doesn’t have a place to sleep. A great way to help, is offer the family your home to stay in. Even if you don’t have a very big house, it doesn't matter. When you offer your home, you are showing how much you care for the family in need. And that’s all that matters.

Now you know a number of meaningful ways you can help a family in your neighborhood, if they are in a fire. Tragedies happen, and we need to learn how to help make them better. You can send food, raise money, or even let them stay in your home until they are recovered. “Treat you’re neighbor as you would want to be treated”.

Why Travel to Disney Land?

If I could travel to any place around the world I would go to the ‘Happiest place on earth’ Disney land. Going on the fun rides, meeting the Disney characters, visiting Disney land during the night time. This all sounds like a dream come true!

As you probably know, Disney land is an amusement park. Therefor, Disney land has loads of scary, relaxing and fun rides! You will always be able to find a ride you like, weather its an upside down roller coaster (like, California screamin’), a water ride (like, splash down mountain) or a soothing/young child ride (like, ‘its a small world’). One of the highlights about the rides are that they are themed around the Disney: movies, T.V shows or characters.

You have seen the disney character in movies, T.V shows and musicals, now its your time to meet them! When you enter Disney land you will get the one in a life time chance to meet all the character’s. There are many tourist attractions in disney land where you could meet the disney characters for example: Goofy’s kitchen, minnie&mickeys houses or even during a parade.

Everything at night is taken up a notch and especially in Disney land! They have parades, fire works and more! The candy/ice cream shop is opened for an extra hour and the rides are NOT crowded! But, the BEST part is going on California screamin’ at night. The ride is lit up, not crowded (well not AS crowded) and there is wonderful music playing in the background!

As you can probably see, Disney land is a great place to travel to. With all the unique rides, silly characters, and the exciting night life, you will always be having a fun and busy day. I think the ‘Happiest place on earth’ is also the best place on earth!

Dani's colored Essay

Mrs. Hinskie was a teacher of mine in third grade at Bormblume Solomen Shecter School. She was one of my most memorable teacher. She looked like no other teacher and her personality was the same. When she taught you, you knew you would never forget the material or the look on her face when you finally got it right. She was my favorite and most memorable teacher and in this essay I will explain.

Mrs. Hinskie had a way of dressing that no other teacher could pull off. She always wore either silk shawls and jeans or a nice shirt and gauchos. But of courses with turquoise cowboy boots. She had thin red hair that was always at her shoulders and some bangs. She had very pale skin with freckles and a tattoo on her ankle. She was in a car crash before my family knew her and she didn't have there fingers on her right hand. Most people would stare but I just was so used to it I didn't even notice. She could pull off just about anything with her style and personality.

With her personality some people would say mean but those were the people who didn't know her. She have a very dry sens of humor and was strict sometimes but not unless you were on her bad side. She was very accomplished and was proud of it. But most of all she was feisty. To this day I can see her arguing about how she should be able to wear jeans. Her personality was unique just like her teaching.

Mrs. Hinskie's teaching method was different than all of the other teachers in all of my schools. When you read a book you took a A.R. test and you would get points. To get a good grade you needed many points. That's were the prizes come in. If you were in the top three points you got a prize. Darleen is Mrs. Hinskie's dog who would sit in a chair in the back of the room . Darleen was a teaching tool when you got something right you could take care of her for an amount of time. We the class would try to be the best so we could take care of Darleen. She would reward us with different objects and activities like the prize box, Darleen, and art.

Mrs. Hinskie was a great teacher and friend she was kind, humorous and strong headed. Those are the qualities that I love about her. She dresses like no other teacher and I have never had a teacher who teaches quit like her, and I don't think I ever will.

Book Talk #2

Book Talk #2
By Josha Rafael

Imagine living in a world where if you’re Jewish living in Germany you get sent to a concentration camp where the Nazis persecute you and leave you to die. Anne Frank did. Her and her family go into hiding from the Nazis for 2 years living with 2 other families. From July 12th 1942- August 1st 1944 Anne wrote in a diary about her and her family in hiding. She explains in the diary what it truly feels like to be totally cut off from the world and the struggles and fights living with 2 other families. The diary is written from the perspective of a teenager who just wants to be a teenager.
By the way, Anne Frank’s diary is actually a real diary that was written by her.

Hello everybody my name is Josha and today my book talk is on Anne Frank’s diary written by Anne Frank. Anne frank’s diary is about when her and her family go into hiding with 2 other families for 2 years. She writes from the perspective of a person stubbornly honest, touchingly vulnerable and just in love with life. She writes about how she hungers for affection and the fights her and her mother get into. She tells her tale with the wisdom of a 50 year old but in truth she is only 13. Now that I think about it, she is only 1 year older than me.

I’d recommend this book to kids ages 11- 15 who like sadness, happiness, love, hatred and just plain stupidness.

This book is available at Book Warehouse, Kidsbooks, Chapters, Mr.G’s library, Mrs.Weintraub’s library, our school library, and the Vancouver Public library.

Book talk #2- Percy Jackson and the Olympians the lightning thief

Hook- Imagine being a regular normal boy one day and the next you figure out that you are a half blood because your father is the G-D of the sea Poseidon. Then you figured out that Zeus’s master bolt was stolen and you are their main suspect. And it was all up to you and your friends to restore peace within the G-d’s and the world.
My name is Maayan Fadida and the book I am doing is called Percy Jackson and the Olympians the lightning thief by Rick Riordan.

Summary- It all starts out with a boy named Percy Jackson that has been kicked out of too many boarding schools to count. At the moment he is being kicked out of a school but that is not exactly at the top of his list right now. Percy has been experiencing some odd things to him like having mythological creatures walk straight out of your history book and having your teacher turn into an animal at the museum. All of these things were answered to Percy when learned that he is the son of Poseidon and that he is a half-blood.

Zeus the G-d of the sky’s master bolt has been stolen and their main suspect is Percy. Percy and his friends have been sent on a quest to find the bolt and return it to Zeus before the summer solstice in ten days. Percy can’t take a plane to where he needs to go because he cannot go in the sky because the Zeus is up there and he thinks that Percy stole his bolt. So, bad things could happen. Did they return the bolt to Zeus or not you’ll have to read to find out.

I recommend this book to people who like adventure and fantasy. I think this book is suitable for kids the ages of 9- 13.

This book is available in the school library

Simple Example of Expository Essay

Here is an example of a five paragraph essay. Pay attention to the colours!

My favorite pet is my dog, Romeo. He is beautiful and easy to care for. Playing with him is lots of fun. He always takes care of me. I have never had a better pet.

Romeo is beautiful and easy to care for. He is a tricolor Sheltie, mostly black with white and a bit of brown. Caring for him is easy because I simply have to make sure he has fresh water and food every day. I exercise him by throwing his toys. Because he is good looking and doesn’t require much care Romeo is a good pet.

Romeo is lots of fun to play with. He loves to play catch. He follows me around the house with a toy and drops it on my foot so I will toss it. He can catch just about anything, but his favorite is chasing a Frisbee. I really have fun playing with Romeo.

Romeo takes care of me. He always follows me when I leave a room. When I am sitting on a couch he plops down right beside me. On sunny days when we are hiking in the woods he always makes sure that I keep up with the rest of the family. He always watches out for me.

As you can see, Romeo is a great pet. I am proud of him and he doesn’t require much care. Playing with him is very pleasurable. I am always safe because he watches over me. Romeo is a wonderful pet.

What’s an essay?

An essay is a written composition that is combined of three main parts. There are three steps in writing an essay. One you have to work out what you’re writing about. Two you have to go brainstorm ideas and discuss them. Three you should go through all of your ideas and separate the good ones from the bad ones.


There are three main parts of an essay. There’s the introduction the body and then the conclusion. The introduction is the outline of the essay it states what the essay is going to be about. The body are several paragraphs that are on different ideas. The conclusion wraps up not just the essay but it brings all your ideas to a close.


You should make an essay plan before starting to write your essay. That way you know not just what’s needed in it but also what you would like to include. Also a good plan is to make sure you know the rules of writing an essay before you write one. Here are some really important rules you should know always one idea per paragraph, make sure that you link your paragraphs together, you will need a topic sentence witch is usually at the beginning and make sure each of your paragraphs only contain one point.


There are a few types of essays such as opinion discuss, compare, contrast or explain. If your essay is supposed to be on your opinion make sure that you put thought into it. If in your essay you are supposed to discuss make sure that you consider everyone’s voice. If you are supposed to compare and contrast in your essay try to find facts that are on the same subject but slightly different. If you are writing an essay and you are supposed to explain your subject make sure to find good information.


Some tips that I think would be very useful when writing an essay are when doing your plan make sure to organize your essay. Once you are done writing your first draft review it. While writing an essay make sure to be constantly using spell check. If you can read aloud to make sure your essay is not just good in your head but also on the paper. Make sure before you hand in your essay that there is a title and that your essay answers all the questions that were supposed to be answered in your essay.

What is and Essay?

What is an essay? Is it a cluster of messy writing looking formal? No. It is a written composition on any subject. There are many parts of an essay that you need to know about. Here I will explain a couple of things. One how to plan an essay, two what are it’s parts and three different types of essays. Let’s start from the top of the list, how to plan an essay.

When ever you write an essay, or any piece of writing, you need to plan. You need to know how your essay will look like. What you want in it, and how you can keep it organized. There are a couple good ways to plan an essay. Before you write your outline or brainstorm, you need to analyze your information and pick out all the information you are going to use. You don’t want to start writing and then have loads of useless information written on your paper. Now you can start an outline or brainstorm. An outline is you writing down what you are going to say in each paragraph and where you will put each paragraph and in what order. Another way is brainstorming. You can brainstorm by writing all your ideas in note form or a mind map or anything really. The purpose is to know exactly what you’re going to write. Next step is learning the parts of an essay.

There are three main parts of an essay. The introduction, which is a separate paragraph at the beginning of an essay introducing the essay’s main points. The body, which has all your new edited paragraphs in a easy to understand order. Then last in your essay you have to have a conclusion. The conclusion wraps up all your ideas and summarizes what you have written in your essay. Remember in each of your paragraphs you have to have a topic sentence. To tell the reader what they will learn about in the paragraph. Now that you know all this information you need to know how you can put it into writing, as an essay, by choosing what type of essay to use.

There are many different types of essays that you can write about. It all depends on the subject. You probably won’t want to write an opinion article about ancient Egypt. In an essay you can discuss, explain, compare/contrast, or give your idea or opinion. Sometimes your teacher will ask you to write your opinion of the matter. Although sometimes they ask you to have the hard core facts, and you just need to explain them. Even sometimes you are asked to compare different things, as I did in this past term about Canadian and Japanese society. Always mention the similarities and differences.

Now you can write an essay! Just remember to plan by using a brainstorm or outline. Make sure there are three parts to your essay the introduction, body and conclusion. And last, make sure you know what type of essay you are writing, is it an opinion? Or should you be explaining a specific topic? Good luck with writing your next essay! Now, all that isn’t to hard to remember is it?

What is an essay?

Today I will be writing about what an essay is, what main parts there are, how you can plan and then write one and finally some different types of essays you can choose.

An essay is a written piece of information on any subject. There are three main parts to an essay that are introduction, body and conclusion. The introduction introduces the reader into the story, the body is the middle of the essay and the conclusion is the wrap up of the essay.

When writing an essay, you must analyze the topic and work out exactly what you are doing. You should brainstorm, which means thinking about a variety of smart, good and useful ideas that relate to your topic. After brainstorming, you should begin to select the ideas that are best suited to your topic.

When you begin to organize your essay more, you should have at least one main sentence in a paragraph that describes what you will be talking about. Your first paragraph should have an introduction, your paragraphs in between, should have a body and your last paragraph should have a conclusion. Be sure to write a plan before you start.

When you have your first draft, review it. This means to check your spelling and punctuation and read it aloud. Make sure you have a title that makes sense and relates to what you are talking about. When you have written a first draft of your conclusion, make sure it leads the reader and makes them wanting more!

Writing all essays creates a similar format. However, there are many essay styles. Different types of essays are opinion, discussion, explanation, comparison and contrasting ones. I hope you learned as much about essays as I have. I now feel that since I know what an essay really is, it is much easier to write one!

What is an essay?

An essay is a written composition on any subject. An essay contains of three parts an introduction, body paragraphs and a conclusion. An essay has lots of information on a certain subject. Writing an essay takes lots of time and consists of many parts, but the finished product is worth it!

An essay has three main parts, an introduction, body paragraphs, and a conclusion. The introduction introduces the subject that you will discuss in your essay and hooks the reader. A paragraph is a section of the essay containing information on a main point (one idea only) like the body paragraphs. The body paragraphs give general information about the subject and each body paragraph has a topic sentence that that starts the paragraph by explaining the main point. The conclusion ends off the essay by wrapping up all the information that was given in the essay, it also leaves the reader a good feeling about the essay.

To plan and write a good essay you must do many different things. While you are learning about your topic you should brainstorm ideas, analyze your topic and finally choose the ideas that suit your essay the best. Before writing your essay you must make an essay plan, in the essay plan you must list the main ideas that you want to present in your essay. Then you must make a rough draft and make sure you link your ideas and paragraphs so that they flow well. After you finished writing your rough draft you should check punctuation and spelling.

There are many different types of essays. Some of them tell the opinion of the person who wrote the essay. Some essays compare and contrast ideas, some essays discuss ideas to the reader and some explain ideas to the reader. Although there are many different types of essays each has a different purpose and should be used in different situations.

What is an essay?

Have you really ever taken the time to think about what an essay is? Well, today you will have a chance to find out. An essay is a written composition on ANY subject. In my essay I am going to explain what an essay is, what are its parts, what does each part do, how you plan/write an essay and what are some different types of essays.

An essay has three parts, there is an introduction, body and conclusion. The introduction is the first paragraph in your essay. This part of the essay basically introduces your topic and explains what your are going to be speaking about. The ‘body’ is the part of the essay where you explain in farther detail about your topic. The very last part of an essay is the conclusion. A conclusion sums up the whole essay and ties it all together.

When planning out an essay think of it as if you were planning out a story. Just like when writing a story, in an essay you don’t jump to the first draft you start at square one. Square one is to ANALYZE: determine what kind of essay you are going to be doing, is it a explanation? Opinion? Comparing/contrasting? Or discussing? (etc). The next step is to BRAINSTORM: Brainstorming is a synonym for thinking of all the clever and witty ideas related to your topic. The final footstep before taking out your pen and paper is to CHOOSE. Choosing is primarily like narrowing down all your ideas and choosing the ones best suited for your topic.

Once you have finished all of those steps, it is time to get started on writing your essay. There are actually a lot of key points to writing an essay. Probably, one of the most important rules when writing an essay is to make sure you are only focusing on one topic per paragraph, otherwise your essay could become very sloppy and confusing. The next item to think about is choosing a topic sentence. A topic sentence is usually the first or second sentence in your essay explaining your main idea in your paragraph. After you have written your topic sentence, finish off the paragraph with other sentences to support or that are related to your topic sentence.

Your probably wondering why I took all this time to make a thought-out essay about essays, well, knowing how to write an essay is a very important skill. When you grow older you will have to write essays for schools, jobs and much, much more. By now I hope you know the basics of writing an essay and can apply these rules into your own life!

thank you,

Essay about an Essay

What is an essay?- By Maayan Fadida 6B

An essay is a written composition on any subject, usually presenting the personal view of the writer. Today I will be talking about what an essay is, the three parts of an essay and how to plan and essay. These few basic steps that I am going to say later on in my essay are helpful and used for school, jobs and more.


The three parts of essays are introduction, body and conclusion. The introduction is the starting point of the essay. It is supposed to catch the reader and make them want to read more. The body is made up of separate paragraphs and in every paragraph there is a different idea or point. The conclusion is supposed to bring the essay to a nice and complete stop but you’re not really summarizing the whole entire essay inside of it. You are supposed to summarize the essay and restate the thesis.

Before every paragraph you are supposed to have a topic sentence. The topic sentence is for the reader and the writer to know, what is going to be in the paragraph after reading or writing the first line. Before you hand in you essay you should read it out loud or let someone else read it for punctuation and conventions. The different types of essays are opinion- share your opinion, discuss- discuss the topic, explain- explain what it is about, comparing- compare the topic with another and contrasting.


To plan an essay you have to start with analyzing the topic, brainstorming all your crazy ideas and choosing what relate to your topic. You should always plan out your ideas on a piece of paper. So, in your first draft all of your ideas are organized and you know what goes where. The key to writing an essay is 1. Find a subject that interests you (or that is chosen for you) 2. What do you have to say about this subject? 3. Develop your idea or ideas in an organized way.

So all of you that are reading this are probably wondering why I wrote an essay about an essay. It’s because knowing how to write a proper essay is very helpful and useful because when you get older you have to write more essays for school. So, you have to know how to write one properly and correctly. I hope you this essay really summed up to you really what an essay is and I hope you sucked all of those steps that make up a good essay.

What is an Essay?

What is an essay?

By Jacob 6B

An essay is a written composition on any subject. An essay is made up of 400 words. An essay is made up of 3 parts – introduction (at the beginning), body (in the middle) and conclusion (at the end). Each of these parts is made up of paragraphs. A paragraph focuses on one specific topic. The introduction lays out the stage for what you will be talking about. The body is most of your information is and the conclusion wraps up what you have said.

There are also a few other steps to guide you. These are discuss, compare, explain, contrast and give your opinion. Discussing is talking about all of your ideas. Comparing is discussing with other people your ideas. Explaining is telling everyone about your ideas. Contrast is the difference and giving your opinion is telling people what you think.

Usually, each paragraph will start out with a topic sentence. A topic sentence states the main idea of your paragraph. In each paragraph you have to give evidence to support your main points in the paragraph. Linking your paragraphs together is also important; for example, if you are doing an essay on sharks, you should say how sharks hunt and then what they eat – these two topics are related. But you shouldn’t go from where sharks live to how they hunt.

What is an essay

This paper will discuss what an essay is, what are its parts, how to plan/write an essay and the different types of essays.
An essay is a written composition on any given topic or subject. An essay has many important features. These features are paragraphs including an introduction paragraph, body paragraphs, and the conclusion paragraph. These paragraphs are the ways that an essay shares information. Essays are useful for sharing information, assignments and expressing ideas. When writing an essay, it is good to organize it. You can organize your essay by using an outline to guide you while you write it. Essays can be written by anyone! Essays can be written by kids and adults but if you are writing one, it is important to know how to write an essay. Essays are also very important to know how to write for future reference. Also if you have a topic that you have to do a project on, writing an essay is a great way to do it.
An essay is three main parts, introduction, body and conclusion. All of these parts are paragraphs and all of them are different from each other in the information they contain. The introduction paragraph is the beginning paragraph that kicks off your essay. The introduction paragraph states what topic the essay will be discussing. The body is not always just one paragraph, it could be many. The body paragraph/s shares the main information that you are discussing. Most essays have body paragraphs because each paragraph should contain one idea or point since an essay may have more than one idea, it often has more than one paragraph. The conclusion paragraph is the ending paragraph that wraps it all up. The conclusion paragraph discusses all the main points from the whole essay and gives an overview of the essay. This paragraph sums up the topic and brings the topic to a closure.
To plan an essay, it is very helpful to use an outline. First, to make an outline, you need to find and organize the information on your topic. After this process is done, brainstorm some ideas and then choose the best ideas for your topic. Next, focus on your main ideas, andthen look for different opinions. After brainstorming, it is time to start writing! When you begin writing, make sure that you have a topic sentence for each paragraph and that is often the first sentence. This is helpful becaue it keeps you on a guideline for the paragraph so you do not wander off into an entire new idea. Also, when you finish a paragraph, try to link the last sentence to the first sentence of the next paragraph because it makes is flow well.
There are many different types of essays. For example, an opinion essay. This essay is very self explanatory. An opinion essay is an essay when you learn about your topic, share the information that you have learned and then give your opinion on the topic. Another type of essay is a compare and contrast essay. This essay looks at two topics and compares the similarities and differences. Also, there is the in-class essay and the at-home essay. An in-class essay is when you must write the essay in class within the time limit your teacher gives you. An at-home essay is when you must write the essay at home and it is to be handed in on a given due date.
In conclusion, essays are very important to learn about and how to write. They are also helpful for various reasons. Essays can be written in different forms and they are many tips for helping to write excellent essays.

An essay is a written composition on any topic. There are many different kinds of essays which I’m going to tell you about in this essay. I also will be telling you about how you plan and write essay. Also what the parts of an essay are, and what are they used for.

The parts on an essay are the introduction, body and conclusion. The introduction is the opening paragraph. It tells us what the rest on the essay is going to be about, and the main idea. The body part is a bunch of paragraphs that discuss, explain, tell your opinion, and compare. They each have a topic sentence about the sub-subjects the paragraph is about. The conclusion raps up the essay. There is no new information in it, and it is just reviewing what your essay was about.

There are a few simple and useful ways to plan an essay. You can analyze your topic. For example you can do more research about your topic. Also brainstorming is an excellent way to get more ideas. If you run out ideas you should always brainstorm with friends, it will help. When you are done brainstorming and analyzing you need you choose the best ideas.

There are four different kinds of essays. They are discuss, example, opinion, and compare. In a discussion essay, you’d discuss within the essay. In an example essay you’d give examples of the subject. Let’s say my subject was electricity I would give an example of the kids of electricity and in what ways we use them. In an opinion paragraph you’d say yours and others opinion. In a comparison essay you’d compare two subjects. Let’s say you had to write an essay about Japanese and Canadian society, you would use a comparison essay to compare the two subjects.
