Prompt: In “What is the Age of Responsibility?,” Alan Greenblatt observes: “In America, ‘adulthood’ already has its familiar compass points, 18 and 21. But what is the age of responsibility? And what if that age--the point when citizens are responsible enough to earn all of the rights a democracy confers upon its people--bears no resemblance to the ages already enshrined in law? Finding the answers to those questions is a more complicated task than simply choosing a milestone birthday.” You need to write an essay in which you answer the question: What is the age of responsibility? That is, when should a person be considered an adult? Use your notes, readings, observations, and experience to support your position.

Use your outlines to organize your ideas into a coherent rough draft. Make sure everything flows together and add transitions wherever needed. Add a doc and use the attached doc as a reference to set up your page in MLA (Modern Language Association) format. MLA format is a requirement for all essays in your English courses. You will need your rough draft for peer review in class on Friday.

Share your doc with a partner and complete the steps attached by commenting on each other's Google docs with suggested revisions and edits.

Begin by filling in your working thesis from the thesis generator activity on to your outline. Then, work on your essay outline. I suggest doing the rest of your introduction and conclusion after the body.

Helpful tips for getting started:
-Turn your supporting reasons in your thesis into your topic sentences for each body paragraph.
-Find evidence to support each reason from the articles and videos we have studied (skip the bridge at first).
-Analyze your evidence by connecting back to your topic sentence and your thesis.
Then, go back and do the bridge by previewing your quote or giving context.
-Wrap up that paragraph and transition to the next body paragraph and/or conclusion.
