     Writing a  Personal Response

Your response should be at least 350 words long

and consist of 5 paragraphs.

Slide 21 - Carte mentale

Introduction
The introduction functions like a movie preview, to give your audience a taste of what’s to come, without giving away too much detail so that it does not steal any attention from the main body. You want your reader to be interested in what you have to say.

Slide 22 - Diapositive

Introduction
Attention grabber  
Bridge 
Thesis statement 

Slide 23 - Diapositive

Attention Grabber
Begin the introductory paragraph with a broad, general statement about the paper’s topic or even a question. Try to make it interesting and catchy to encourage your reader to want more information. Remember that the first few sentences give the reader the first impression of your personal response; it is extremely important that you make a good first impression.

Slide 24 - Diapositive

Attention Grabber
You need a good attention grabber to make it interesting and catchy so your reader wants to continue reading.
But how do you come up with a good attention grabber? In general, there are two options:

Slide 25 - Diapositive

Bridge
The bridge consists of two or three sentences to guide your reader from your attention grabber to the thesis statement without revealing your arguments 

Slide 26 - Diapositive

Thesis Statement
This is the last sentence of the introduction.

Remember it is a statement!
And it is NOT preceded by any linking words or used as some sort of conclusion of the introduction.

Slide 27 - Diapositive

Now write the introduction.

Since the personal response should be a minimum of 350 words divided over 5 more or less equally divided paragraphs, the introduction should be around 70 words.

Slide 28 - Diapositive

  • Swap introductions with a classmate
    and give each other feedback
  • Rewrite your introduction

Slide 29 - Diapositive

There are two approaches which can be used to respond to the thesis statement:

1. The one-sided approach
 
2. The balanced approach


Slide 30 - Diapositive

1. The one-sided approach
- Introduction
- 3 paragraphs with arguments for (supporting) or against the           thesis
- Conclusion

Slide 31 - Diapositive

One-sided approach:
Body paragraph 1, 2 AND 3:
- Point supporting thesis statement
- Evidence
- Example

Slide 32 - Diapositive

2. The balanced approach
- introduction
- 2 paragraphs with arguments supporting the thesis
- 1 paragraph with arguments against the thesis
- Conclusion

Slide 33 - Diapositive

Balanced approach:
Body paragraph 1 AND 2
- Point supporting thesis statement
- Evidence
- Example

Slide 34 - Diapositive

Balanced Approach:
Body paragraph 3:
- Point against thesis statement
- Evidence
- Example


Slide 35 - Diapositive

Body Paragraphs
The body paragraphs are the most important paragraphs in your personal response. They contain arguments to convince your reader to agree with you. If you do not offer plausible explanations, you are not likely to convince your reader.

Slide 36 - Diapositive

POINT
The first sentence of the paragraph contains the POINT you want to make, (either in favour of or against the thesis statement. Starting with the point helps the reader understand what you are going to argue in that paragraph. 

Slide 37 - Diapositive

POINT
Let’s have a look at an example of a sentence stating the point of a paragraph supporting the thesis statement Helmets should be obligatory for cyclists in the Netherlands.


First of all, a helmet will make sure fewer cyclists are killed or injured in traffic.


Slide 38 - Diapositive

EVIDENCE
After the point you will present some EVIDENCE

First of all, a helmet will make sure fewer cyclists are killed or injured in traffic. A helmet is made of hard plastic on the outside and a few centimetres of polystyrene on the inside. Together, these layers protect the cyclist’s head in an accident. 

Slide 39 - Diapositive

Example
First of all, a helmet will make sure fewer cyclists are killed or injured in traffic. A helmet is made of hard plastic on the outside and a few centimetres of polystyrene on the inside. Together, these layers protect the cyclist’s head in an accident. For example, if the cyclist falls off the bike and hits the asphalt, the helmet will break the fall and reduce the risk of serious head injuries. 

Slide 40 - Diapositive

To help structure your ideas for the reader, you make use of linking words.

First of all, a helmet will make sure fewer cyclists are killed or injured in traffic. A helmet is made of hard plastic on the outside and a few centimetres of polystyrene on the inside. Together, these layers protect the cyclist’s head in an accident. For example, if the cyclist falls off the bike and hits the asphalt, the helmet will break the fall and reduce the risk of serious head injuries. 

Slide 41 - Diapositive

Before you start writing: 
- you have to decide if you want to choose the one-sided or the     balanced approach 
- you have to make a plan with your arguments, evidence and         examples.

Slide 42 - Diapositive

  • Now make a planning scheme for the body paragraphs
  • Swap with a classmate and give each other feedback 

Slide 43 - Diapositive

Conclusion
Summarize your three points supporting the thesis statement in other words than you have used in the three body paragraphs.

Slide 44 - Diapositive

Conclusion:
Summarize both views (for and against thesis statement) and end with your final stance on the thesis statement.

Slide 45 - Diapositive

  • Now fill in the conclusion
       in the planning scheme. (on paper)
  • Swap with a classmate and give each other feedback 

Slide 46 - Diapositive

Now write your personal response using the planning scheme.

Slide 47 - Diapositive

Before you hand your work in to be checked, 
have you:
- Checked your grammar and spelling?
- Used linking words?
- Made your POINT clear at the beginning of each body                       paragraph?
- Checked whether your response is clear and coherent?
- Write down your name and the number of words you have             used under your personal response.
