Can anyone give me advice on how to compare a synagogue to a place where you feel calm?
Thank you
List different aspects of "feeling calm."
Then list different activities (or lack of activity) that take place in a synagogue.
Compare (tell similarities) the items in your lists, and you should be ready to plan and draft your paper. Remember: DO NOT START BY WRITING THE INTRODUCTION!! Your first draft should be just the internal paragraphs.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
DON'T start any paper's first draft by writing the introduction! You cannot effectively introduce a paper that you haven't written yet.
Follow the writing process, whether you're writing for science, history, English, or whatever:
Prewriting: Brainstorm, research, plan, outline, thesis statement
Writing: Write first draft by starting with section II of your outline; write the introduction after the body of the paper is written; write the conclusion last.
Polishing: Revise, concentrating first on the body of the paper, then the intro, then the concl (revision = making sure ideas are logical and sequential and support your thesis); proofread (spelling, grammar, usage, etc.)
Do you have a thesis yet? Have you done your brainstorming (and maybe research) yet? Have you written an outline?
