What is an A.C.E.S. paragraph?

It is a form of paragraph you will use in many classes throughout your high school career.  

It includes:

A (1) an assertion (statement) or answer to a question in the first line.  This is your “topic sentence.”  Your other sentences will develop this main idea, just like you illustrate an engine clause in a train sentence;

C (2) at least one citation (quote) from a text you are reading and/or one or more comments on what you are discussing;

E (3) an explanation of or an elaboration on each citation or comment;

S (4) and a summary statement that wraps up your paragraph.

Explanation:

each year on this day, i make it a point to listen to dr. martin luther king jr.’s great “i have a dream” speech. it’s electrifying every single time.

the content of dr. king’s speech, his inspiring presence, and the moment in history all came together to make the iconic “i have a dream” speech the defining moment of the american civil rights movement. but there are several other reasons why this speech, delivered over 50 years ago, remains an example of one of the best speeches in american history.

since part of my job is to people become better presenters, i’ve noticed several techniques that we can all learn from and be inspired by in this magnificent speech.

it’s anchored in a powerful related location

in most cases, you can’t handpick the spot to give a presentation, as mlk did for supreme symbolic effect when he stood on the steps of the lincoln memorial and echoed the opening words of the gettysburg address (“five score years ago . . ). but you absolutely can amplify your message by adapting it to your setting and location.

where is the writing? (so i can answer)
