Writing an Introduction - On page 2 of Unit 5 Lesson 2, there are two examples of introductions. Read both, then critique both introductions by explaining which you believe is better and why
2. Well-written informational texts always begin with a strong introduction. The introduction states the purpose and previews what the rest of the text will discuss.
1. The introduction may take the form of a topic sentence, which expresses the central idea, in a single paragraph.In a longer text, the introduction may be one or more paragraphs. In that introduction, the writer should do the following:
Yall gave me an f my languade arts was a60% and yall gave me a 0%
yall people suck so bad yall do not give qustions BOt GPT3.5
critique the two introductions, stating which one is better and why.
yes do that in a short pargraph
Both examples of introductions serve their purpose of stating the importance of a well-written introduction in informational texts. However, example 1 provides more specific information and guidance on how to structure an introduction. It mentions that the introduction may take the form of a topic sentence and can be a single paragraph or multiple paragraphs in longer texts. This specificity gives the reader a clearer understanding of what to expect in an introduction. Example 2 is more general and simply states that the introduction should state the purpose and preview the rest of the text. Therefore, example 1 is better because it provides more specific and actionable information for the reader.
