You are caring for the following patient in the emergency department:   Which action is priority to complete next?

STEP 1. Choose one of the stories from the list below and discuss at least three (3) of the following literary elements found in the work: plot, character, setting, symbol, theme, and point of view.   You may infuse other literary elements in the essay; however, you must focus on three main elements. Works to choose from…  The Story of an Hour: limitations on women, stifling nature of marriage The Storm: limitations on women, stifling nature of marriage, sexuality in women The Chrysanthemums: themes: limitations on women, stifling nature of marriage The Lottery: continuation of outdated traditions     WORD LENGTH: 900-1,000 Words       STEP 2: WRITE THE INTRODUCTION   Example of intro and outline: 1. For your intro, open with a general statement about the theme of your work and end the paragraph with the thesis.  2. Elaborate on the opening statement, making sure you are leading readers to the thesis. 3. Write another elaboration sentence.  4. Introduce the author and title of the work. 5. 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. Make sure that your quotes help your analysis; do NOT retell the story Paragraph II: 1st element….define and discuss how seen in work…include quotes to support… Between 8-12 sentences in length Paragraph III: 2nd element…define and discuss how seen in work…include quotes…Between 8-12 sentences in length Paragraph IV: 3rd element…define and discuss how seen in work…include quotes…Between 8-12 sentences in length   STEP 4: WRITE THE CONCLUSION Paragraph V: Conclusion… reiterate or restate thesis…Between 6-8 sentences in length   STEP 5: Create a Works Cited (Cite only the short story)   The essay must contain five well-developed paragraphs, including an introduction and a conclusion. Be sure to put your MLA heading on all assignments. Space between paragraphs–not sentences. You CANNOT use research sources. You are to only use the short stories.

A student poses the question: How does the presence of dissolved salt affect the freezing point of water? To answer this question, the student set up two conditions. In the first condition, the student added salt to water in a container and referred to this condition as the variable. In the second condition, the student did not add any salt to water in a second container and referred to this condition as the control. The student took both containers and attempted to freeze the water at various temperatures to assess the freezing point. Would this be a valid experiment?
