Topic Sentance Worksheet

Thesis statement Vegetarians are just like you and me the only difference is they choose not to eat our fellow living animals.

There are several different reasons why one would want to become a vegan.

Topic 1 Many of the individuals who are now vegan did not always start out as such. Now while some were raised on families who believed that vegan was a proper way of life other because of religion, beliefs or morals. Others just simply decided in one point of their life that vegan was just the proper way to live. A fellow co-worker Alex Inwood who is a vegan was convinced to be so due to pictures of slaughterhouses and what meat looks like before it is cooked. What ever their reasons may be there are belief and feeling that back it up.

Transition But if their beliefs or personal decisions prevent them from eating meats than what would a vegan do in order to get nourishments found in meats.

Topic 2 What must a vegan eat in order to survive and get all of their nutrients?

Vegans pride them selves on the fact that they eat no meat and subject no animal to become nutrition. So if they do not eat meat than how would they get the certain vitamins and minerals that are needed to survive. Some actually make certain exceptions such as eating a small amount of fish or something such as that but still avoiding meats. Others take vegetarianism much more seriously and take special vitamins and supplements to support and nourish their body.

Transition Nourishing their bodies is one thing but what about other aspects of their life that vegetarianism could affect.

Topic 3 What other products do vegans refuse to use do to their involvement in animal cruelty.

Some Vegans draw the live at only not eating meets, but others take their involvement much more seriously. There are certain vegans that also include soaps, makeup, and other every day household products as a way to prevent animal cruelty. There are actually certain stores and products that pride them selves on not involving animals in the production of their products.

Conclusion Now you may not be able to notice by looking at these average, every day people but they pride themselves on the healthy un-cruel way that they live. Weather they take it very seriously as a way to make them selves feel better about animal cruelty and the actions to prevent it, or they just want a healthier way to live. These people in their minds are making a difference and a positive change for the future.

Good device I think a good way to start a paper in the opening paragraph is to get the readers interested and intrigued. The main objective in the opening paragraph is to get your reader involved and interested n what you are going to talk about. If the reader isn’t interested and are board with the first paragraph then they most likely wont read on. As long as your reader is involved then they will be interested in most cases.

Effective conclusion A good way to end the paper is to wrap up all lose ends. You want the reader to remember what your main ideas were in the paper and this is why you should repeat your thesis statement. You should in part summarize what your entire paper was trying to address and maybe even leave the reader with something to think about.

Josh-
Take another look at your thesis. Rather than beginning with an argumentative tone, simply list what particular aspects of the vegan lifestyle you want to focus on.
