Justification Paper. Demonstration of the process and format. 
Write a detailed essay of 350-500 words that provides specific reasons why a particular color has a special significance to you. This color should be associated with at least three aspects of your life: culture, ethnic background, academic strengths, hobbies, family, friends, musical interests, sports, career goals, etc. We are not talking about, "My favorite color is..." This should be a symbolic color that represents three important parts of your life. For example, green might represent your interest in the environment, your Irish heritage, and your interest in earning money for college.
  1. Proper heading and an appropriate title.
  2. A clear introduction that lets the reader know that you will be discussing the relevance of a particular color to specific aspects of your life.
  3. Transition words that introduce each of your new points about your chosen color (first of all, also, in addition, furthermore, finally...)
  4. Specific reasons why you have selected this color, including showing details, and relevant commentary.
  5. At least three of the academic or vocabulary words we have been studying.
  6. Conjunctions to join ideas (but, since, because...) Must use both complex and compound sentences.
  7. A conclusion that thoughtfully wraps up the essay and recaps your main points.
