Essay One Assignment
Due: Monday, January 29

In this essay, you will follow the models in your textbook on pages 22-26. Rather than using the textbook’s prompt – about automobiles and fossil fuels – we will use a topic concerning the banning of cigarette smoking in public places. Follow the guidelines for “Option 2” on page 22. Then read the student’s sample essay (Brittany Tinker) on pages 23-24. Use her essay only as a model. Continue to follow the guidelines on pages 25-26, for showing why this issue is problematic and significant. Your essay should not answer a question; it should pose one. Your question will be “should cigarette smoking be banned in all public places?” Your essay will need to be three pages long.
