Full sentence outline:
In drafting traditional essays the sentence outline is most commonly used. Instead of generalization, the sentence outline requires full sentences. Though it takes much time but very effective for writing essay.
Building an Outline
Let’s apply outlining on the Adam’s dream school so to come up with it. For this. Adam will use the full sentence outline.
First, he will write the title of his outline on the paper like 'The Benefits of Environmentally Friendly School Construction.'
So, Adam decided that the first paragraph of his essay will inquire into the lower utility costs associated with owning a school. Next to identify the main idea of the paragraph Adam creates a complete sentence and refer to this as a topic sentence. 'Installing energy-efficient appliances in school leads to a more environmentally friendly school and can greatly reduce utility costs.
'
Hurrah! The direction for this first paragraph is set and now to add specific details from his research Adam will move to the next line on his page. He mark five spaces and write his first specific detail next to capital letter 'A.' 'According to ENERGY Star, school owners could save up to $180 each year by utilizing an environmentally friendly programmable thermostat (RESNET, 2012).'
Thus by analyzing Adam has interpreted his detail as:
'Making environmentally friendly choices during construction when it comes to installing appliances has lasting economic benefits for school owners.'
Installing energy efficient appliances in school leads to a more en vironmentally friendly school and can greatly reduce utility costs A According to ENERGY star schoolwners could save up to $ 180 each year by utilizing an environment tally friendly programmable thermostat (RESNET, 2012)
Full sentence outlines are commonly used in traditional essay planning
So in your paper when forming outline you are advised to provide two specific details for each of the essay's body paragraphs with at least one sentence of analysis.
One more specific detail is required to Adam for completing sentence outline of this essay
So, he will use label B for other sentence. He will cast a light on the importance of most widely used bulbs these days as: 'The front office light is one of the most used lights in the schools; therefore, installing a compact fluorescent light bulb (CFL) in this location can help curb energy costs (RESNET, 2012).' Once again, Adam follows this detail up with a sentence of analysis: '1. A few simple changes to our school furnishing purchases can change the way we spend and impact the environment.'
So, Adam is successfully completing the outlining for the environment friendly school building. So, he will repeat the technique throughout his planning. And this time he will be able to build his dream school.
