Why introduction?

In his article what should college teach? Fish argue about how high school students are unprepared for college. For which he blamed high school teachers. He also explained that because of students being unprepared for college, professor have to re teach the information that students were expected to know. Later in his argument, he argued about how sentences are most important thing to focus when we write. Fish stated “you have to start with a simple but deep, for which my purpose is the

When your sentences strategy wouldn’t work because your
 introduction isn’t interesting enough to grab readers attention 

game of writing sentences. So it makes sense with the question. What is sentence anyway? My answer has two parts 1. A sentences is a organization of items in the words 2. A sentence is a structure of logical relationship”.by which Fish explained that if we have good sentence our paragraph will be best, that’s why he teach his students to focus on sentence first. I agree with having good sentences always makes our paper great, but i also believes that our paper should have good introductory paragraph in order to grab readers attention.

The most important aspect of introduction paragraph is to be able to grab readers attention. If we fail to do so our essay will be pointless. That’s why I believe while writing paper we should always focus on introduction because it is the first thing that readers have to come across while reading our paper. Which is why our introduction should have ability to grab readers attention. Many students would think why should you even care about introduction? It’s because introductory paragraph is the first impression of paper. Introduction provides our readers our writing skill and overall quality of our paper. That’s why introduction is the most difficult part of our paper because according to University of North Carolina  “introduction acts  as bridge that transform our readers from their life to our analysis”.

Some of the few ways to grab readers attention is by asking questions, including interesting quotes and/or telling story. Asking questions is one of the ways to grab readers attention. Don’t know how it makes sense to ask questions? Don’t worry, In order for you to ask interesting question we first need

When you don’t have ideas on how to grab readers attention 

to think of our topic and also how we want our claim to work on our paper. Then think about how we can line our body paragraph. Finally decide a question which would make best sense to your claim and ask. If asking questions is not best option for you then you should consider including quotes because asking questions holds similar aspects as including interesting quotes. Telling story is always a great idea because it plays part to grab readers attention emotionally. The best way to write story is by including something interesting that happened to you or something you’ve witnessed.

I come across how grabbing readers attention is always best way to write paper when I was observing a tutorial observation with Hannah and McKenzie here at Ohio State University’s writing studio. After interview I then conduct face to face interview with McKenzie where she agreed with my opinion about grabbing readers attention. I order to prove my point on introductory paragraph i then created a survey on survey monkey where I asked about college level writing and how to succeed on college where everyone agreed with my statement on “grabbing readers attention from first paragraph”. After the survey I decided to do further research and start reading books and web article on introduction. Finally I connect an email interview with professor Green, Shawana who is English professor here at Ohio State University.

Overall I do agree with Fish’s argument on structure of sentence is important but after all my research I’ve done so far I am sure that grabbing readers attention is the best way.
