The day in Mr Sharpes class we learned all about conclusions.
we looked at lots of dfferent examples and were finding out advanced ways to end an essay

when writing a conclusion you should try to always have,

-clear refrence it is a conclusion
-sum up points
-a personal response
-answer the question-
- and finish with a warm fuzzy glow

also you can finish your conclusion with a quote which doesn't need to be explained, but the quote must fit in with the question being answered.

Finally updated with my apologies by Stephen Robertson

In this lesson we learned how to make the perfect introduction. We know thats we have to state the name of the author, name of the poem and the genre. We can also use a quote to start of the introduction and we can have a big themactic opening.

-overview of the text

-outline your argument

-catch the examiners attention

This is an intro you can use for most things...

The theme of X is one which X us all and X the human experience. Its rare that we take time to consider X. Yet this is precisely what Y does in his X and Y "Z".
