In the same way that an introduction is an upside down triangle, your conclusion is a right side up triangle: It begins by restating your thesis and opens the concept up to other ways the reader can connect with it. Follow these steps:
1. Restate the thesis in a NEW way--do not repeat you true thesis statement. In one or a tw osentences, reword it. (1-2 sentences)
2. Then begin to connect the thesis to the reader--would the reader of your paper identify with Odysseus? Would the reader learn a lesson from the Odyssey? (1-3 sentences)
3. End with a thought provoking statement, or a call to action on behalf of the opinion proved. (should everyone read the Odyssey? Can you make your reader think about whether or not the Odyssey is an important piece of literature?
