the book “Breaking Open the Head”

Write an essay that applies the Toulmin template in each body paragraph. Identify seven major claims made by the author as you read the text. Write a single topic sentence for each of these major claims. Use the formula, “Pinchbeck claims X (#).” Include the MLA in-text citation. The writing core provides you with the full Toulmin template and instruction. You MUST leave all labels in the final copy. I will not grade essays that do not include labels. See the writing core for examples of the labels. The introductory paragraph and concluding paragraph MUST each employ a specific strategy. Label the strategy in the final copy. Your essay will be incomplete without this step. See the writing core. You will use outside source material to make your analysis as well-rounded as possible. Source attribution will be done in MLA only. See the writing core for MLA instruction and reference materials. Your sources should be from valid academic research databases. Use the ARC library website to access these databases. The number, quality, and integration of sources will factor into your grade. This essay will use, at minimum, four outside academic sources. Your essay will be considered incomplete without the minimum five sources. Every essay must included an MLA work cited page. If you lack a work cited page, your essay will be considered incomplete.
