Directions:

In formal, academic writing, we want to write clearly so that our readers can easily understand us. One way to ensure that our writing is clear and well organized is to follow PIE paragraph structure. PIE structure allows us to clearly state our paragraph’s point, prove our point with strong information, and explain to the reader what we want to tell them with our information.

To prepare for the first project, which is writing an academic essay, we will learn about PIE paragraph structure.

Step 1:

Review the lectures below on PIE paragraph structure. Watch the videos carefully and read through the lectures slowly. Watch and read multiple times if needed

Step 2:

Get out your annotation worksheet on Gladwell. Pick a claim (also known as a point/main point) that Gladwell makes in “Small Change.” Write a paragraph using PIE based on that claim by Gladwell.

Make sure to develop a Point that is an opinion, provide clear information to show support, and explain/analyze in the end.

While crafting this paragraph, please refer to the Essay Format & Writing Tips Powerpoint, as well as the videos, worksheets, and Powerpoint above.
