Introduction 

• This introduces your person without saying "I am going to tell you about"

4 Paragraphs that answer the questions we brainstormed in class:

• These can be divided into concept questions: for example,
• form (what is it like)/function (how does it work)
• causation (why it is like it is)/perspective (what are points of view)
• connection (how is it connected to other things)/responsibility (what is responsibility)
• change (how does it change)

• or four major components: for example:
• Early Life (family, education, where they lived, etc.)
