Transcripts
hey there it's wendy welcome to
worldwide speak and today i'd like to go
over how to outline a basic
essay now this was a request from one of
our
subscribers so if you haven't subscribed
yet that might be a good idea
so you know when our newest videos come
out and you can also make requests
and we'll be happy to make a video for
you if
we haven't already covered a topic
you're interested in
but anyway this video is what we're
talking about
and i would like to share with you that
there is
an essay that goes along with this video
so if you're a teacher or a student you
might want to go
you might want to pause the video right
now click the link
in the show notes to our website go to
the resources tab
and you'll see basic essay
click on that you can download it or
open it up
in a different browser and have that on
hand
while i'm going over this essay outline
it's not necessary but it i have found
when i teach this
it's really useful to have the essay
and then to teach the outlining process
kind of backwards from the essay so
let's get started okay so what is
outlining
it's the part of the writing process
where you organize your ideas it comes
usually typically
after we've brainstormed our ideas for
our paper
then we pick out which ideas we like the
most
which we think will support our topic
sentence or our thesis
and we organize them by the structure of
the paper so it's really when you
outline
we just put a few words in in the order
of the structure of the paper
so you can see the framework or the
paper in its totality
and how it's organized you can think of
it like
the picture below you know you have your
monthly calendar
so you have your your big overview of
what your month looks like and then you
have
the days on which you have specific
things to do it's
kind of like that with your paper the
outline is the big idea
and then we go through and organize it
by the structure
of the paper so in this video i want to
walk you through
a basic essay outline the assignment is
to write a three paragraph essay this is
for
students english language learners in
particular
who are just beginning their writing
process and maybe they've just
transitioned from writing a paragraph to
writing an
essay and the three paragraphs
is a nice transition for that the essay
prompt
what you're going to write about is
describe
the best city for a vacation so
you as the writer are going to pick a
city and then you're going to try to
convince your reader
why it's the best city for a vacation
so what is the structure of
this paper it's going to have three
paragraphs right
the first paragraph is going to be your
introduction
the second paragraph is going to be your
body paragraph that
that's what holds all of your reasons
and details and then
the last paragraph is going to be your
conclusion
so it's a three paragraph essay about
the best city for a vacation and
it's going to have an introduction
paragraph a body paragraph
and a conclusion paragraph okay so
here is the structure of
your paper in outline form now
i have chosen the city of chicago to be
the best destination in the introduction
i'm going to have three pieces
i'm going to have a hook or a big
general statement
i'm going to have some background
information about cities and vacationing
and then i'm going to have my thesis
which will state
my opinion right and which city that
i think is the best then the next
paragraph is going to have a bunch of
pieces
the first sentence because this is a
three paragraph
essay the first sentence is going to be
your topic sentence you're going to tell
the reader the focus of this body
paragraph
and then you're going to give the first
reason
with a couple of details for support the
second reason
with a couple more details for support
and a third reason
with a couple more details for support
and then the last paragraph
you're going to restate your thesis in
our case
why chicago is so awesome
and then we're going to leave the reader
with something to think about an opinion
a prediction some sort of suggestion
so this is your outline
structure so here we are we have the
structure on the left here is how
i would outline this now remember in
the show notes is a link to our website
where you can download for free
the actual basic essay that i'm using
for this
outline if that helps you you can go
there you can pause this
go there download it or open it up on a
different browser so you can look at
both of these at the same
time so here we are let's start the
outlining process
when my students are just beginning to
write
introductions introductions can be a
little tricky to write
um i tell them if they can't think of a
hook
then to come up with like a big general
statement about the idea of the paper
so the prompt was describe the best city
for vacation so you might want to talk
about
you know different cities to visit i
decided to say
there are a lot of cities in the world
to visit
and then the background information is
going to narrow that
down right so i'm talking about the
world
and so i need to to narrow it down for
the reader
my thesis is going to include chicago so
maybe i should talk about the fact that
the united states has a lot of cities
and i could mention a couple
other ones like new york city and san
francisco
and then i want to be totally focused
with my thesis
which is chicago and i have
three specific reasons um i
when i was brainstorming i came up with
the architecture
restaurants and museums
so i now can move on to my body
paragraph
and for the topic sentence i need to
tell the reader the purpose of this body
paragraph
and that's that chicago is great
for many reasons right i had said three
in my thesis so i probably want to be
general in my topic sentence so i don't
sound very repetitive
the reason number one now make sure that
your reasons
if you state them in your thesis they
follow that same order and in my thesis
i stated
architecture first then restaurants
then museums so reason number one will
be
right architecture and then i need a
couple
of really super super specific details
to make sure
that i'm painting this picture in the
mind of the reader of
just why this architecture is so amazing
and why
you have to go see it well one of my
favorite structures ever is the
millennium park band shell
uh designed by frank gehry and then
um i can give another detail about it
that is more specific
like how it's called a headdress isn't
that funny for this
band shell but the headdress is over 120
feet high which
makes it just loom over the park where
it's situated
so our next reason is restaurants right
i need to think about something that's
really specific to chicago that would
differentiate it or make it stand out
from
other cities so of course
i mentioned my favorite pizza place
lou malnati's because chicago has this
famous chicago style pizza and then
i'll probably go on to add a detail
about
um exactly what chicago
style pizza looks like and why it's
unique um here that's the inverted
cheese with the sauce on top
and the crust is the best right and then
last is um the last reason is
we're going to talk about museums and
i want to be very detailed again and so
i talk about
my favorite museum the field museum of
natural history
and then i'm going to talk about why
this museum is so
cool and you need to visit it and it has
over 2 million visitors
and then there's the underground
adventure display and then there's also
sue the dinosaur so as you can see
when i write down these little notes i
have the structure for this
pretty long body paragraph you know in
each sentence
is organized so that when i go to write
i just have to fill in
a little more information and lastly
we're going to talk about the conclusion
paragraph now
the first sentence of your conclusion
paragraph is the specific one
and it's a restated thesis so i'm going
to talk about
chicago again and how it's the best
experience
i'm not going to say it the same way as
my thesis because that would be
kind of boring and repetitive but i'll
probably switch the order of the
sentence and use different words or
synonyms and then i'm going to leave the
reader
thinking about my paper and how am i
going to do that
right i'm going to tell the reader in my
paper that
since chicago is so awesome that they
better start
planning their next trip to chicago and
packing
right away so there you have it
this is what an outline
would look like for a basic
essay you have your introduction your
body paragraph
and your concluding paragraph it's a
nice road map of where you're going
in your paper so you can see it in
totality
because sometimes if we begin writing
without an outline
we can be writing and focused and then
we can lose focus
and when you lose focus your writing is
not clear
or effective the outline guarantees that
you're going to be clear and effective
because you can see exactly where you're
going
in your paper and it also lets you know
just about
how many sentences you need to write for
your essay if that helps you
i find it helps my students who are just
beginning to write in english
so there you have it hopefully this
helps and
if you have success with this or any
questions i would
love to hear from you just leave me a
note in the comments and i will
definitely get back to you
all right see you later
