WRITING AN INTRODUCTION
Every assignment needs a beginning! The purpose of an introduction is to grab the reader’s attention—and to keep it. Start by thinking about four of the W’s in the assignment: who, what, where and when. (The why and how can be explained in the body paragraphs.) This information helps the reader to understand what the assignment is about.
If you have a good introduction, chances are you’ll have a good overall paper. The introduction sets the stage for everything the reader is about to learn. And it sets the tone for your style of writing. It’s important to use your introduction to map out what a reader can expect from your assignment. But it’s even more important not to give everything away in those first few sentences. If you write your introduction right, you’ll make sure your readers get all the way through to your last word!
An introduction is important because it tells readers about the article, story or paper. It should give the reader an idea of what you're writing about without giving away all the information in the story. It should also hook the reader and make them want to read more. Sometimes, an introduction will introduce a person, place or thing that will be important later in the article.
