The thesis must include the 3 elements to be discussed. ***DO NOT introduce your story and author before the fourth sentence in the Introductory paragraph.     Paragraph I: Introduction       Today, it is quite common to find people who are interested in tracing their family roots. This idea of ancestry is seen everywhere from television shows to numerous online sites developed to help people to trace their genealogy. The concepts of heritage and ancestry are also found in literary works. One example includes Alice Walker’s “Everyday Use” which tells the story of gaining an understanding of culture and heritage. Though character and point of view are very important in Alice Walker’s “Everyday Use,” her use of setting is what propels the story.                                                                                    REMEMBER: (The thesis must include the three elements you will be discussing.) The writer and the title of the work should be included in the intro but not mentioned before the 4th sentence in the paragraph.   STEP 3: WRITE THE BODY Defend your position by using discussion and evidence from the story. You should define and discuss how the element is seen in the story. You are to use quotes to support your assertions. Be sure to use quotation marks.
