Chapter 14

Classification

In this chapter teaches us how to write a classification essay. As the name itself suggest classification- the act of distributing things into classes or categories of the ssame type. It is an essay when you pick a topic like for example education, you then subdivide that topic into subgroups like learning styles, learning medium, testing methods etc. In your first paragraph you state your topic, thesis and explain how you are going to subdivide the subject. The middle of your essay is where you want to develop your thesis and explain your subgroups in more detail. And then you want to have a conclusion that brings the subgroups back together. When writing a classification essay, you need to be sure that your essay is consistent when you subdivide your topic and you need to write it in such a way that your reader will understand the essay as a whole. This type of essay will probably require some amount of research, so you should make sure to list your sources to be on a safe side
