VERSE 1
Everybody ready OKAY
Ima teach you the best way
To start writing out your essay
Get your pad and pencil ready
Let's play
Pick a topic and research
Use the internet become an expert
Analyst, Analyze the essay so you can handle this!
Brain storm, this essay is going to need a vision of your own
Think about it, got your topic,
Creative way you want to write about it
Thesis, Main point
Summed up
The reader has to know
Where you going before you come up
The outline you sketched out
One line, sentences describe paragraphs
Bullet points of what you want to say
Map it out and you will be on your way
The introduction has to grab their attention
When they read this
Make sure your paragraph is backing up your thesis
Write out the conclusion
It’s kind of like a movie
You want to have a good ending
With all this information pending
You sort it out, wrote it out
Know what you want now type it up
The typing size should be 12 point
Times new roman font
Nothing here is single
Everything is double spaced
It shouldn’t be a single space between a paragraph
Or any place
Start the setting with your heading
Your name, under that your teacher name
Under that you need to list the class
Under that you need to list the date
Title next don’t hesitate
Title should be centered
Right above the first line of the essay
And you must remember
The page numbers
Top right corner
Last name page number next
Make sure everything’s lined up
At the left margin choose the line left
The first line in each paragraph
Should be indented
A half inch, five spaces
Or you can just hit the tab key
Lastly make sure the whole essay is centered
From the left to the right
From the top and bottom
In the margins
It all started with an idea
Research structure from sentence to sentence
An essays invented
It all started with an idea
Research structure from sentence to sentence
An essays invented

VERSE 2
Its four major essays
But they have different behaviors
Narrative descriptive expository persuasive
Let's start with the narrative essay
Telling a story about a real life experience
Its serious this essay should be written in first person
Make the story clear as possible
Keep them reading for certain
Second Descriptive essay
Painting a picture with words
Creatively like poetry
Emotionally it gets heard
You may describe in person place or object or memory
But the meaning of what you talking about
Is deeper than what the eye can see
When you writing descriptive essay
You show not tell
Through the sense of colorful words
And the sensitive details
Now next we have expository
Essay list the facts
Find the topic use statistics
And examples all in the check
Now all these essays fall in this category in the best way
Comparison and contrast
Cause and effect essay
The How to is another one
Or even a process essay
No first person no personal feelings
Don’t reveal emotions
You got it you hearing me
The last one is persuasive essay
Convince me to accept the writers point of view
All recommendation on you
You have to build a case
Use the facts
