You'll see I use a special mnemonic to help students remember the structure of an essay:
✓Introduction: HAT (just like you put a hat on the top of your head, you put a hat on the top of your essay)
✓Body: ACEIT (Ace it)
✓Counterclaim: FAUCET (To 'turn it up' or 'pour it on')
✓Conclusion: ATT (what’s the last thing you make sure you have before your leave the house ?– your phone – your AT&T! – ok, not everyone has AT&T but the students get the idea!)
My students appreciated having these reference sheets in their own writing folders so they always had something with which to refer. I hope this toolkit helps your students as much as it did mine!
