Developing a topic

Get started: Two men play five games of chess, and each man wins five games. How is this possible? Email or post your response on the blog.(five minutes)

At the end of the period today, you need to email me the following: the topic of your compare/contrast essay, along with the 4-5 categories you are using for comparison. You must also provide a list of three Internet sources that you will use as references for your paper, and why those websites are reliable.



For example:

In this essay I will contrast bulimia and anorexia.
The categories I will use to contrast them are a. ways of dealing with food, b.sense of control over food, and c. health problems that result from the disease.  However, they are similar in that d. people who suffer from bulimia and anorexia both excessively exercise, and e. both diseases primarily affect young women. 

Use the following format for your list of sources (bibliography)

    It is possible because the two men are not playing against each other.

    They are not playing against each other. It says that the two men are playing five games but does not say they are playing against each other.
