Content
- Your intro should include a clear definition of what it meant to be a hero in ancient Greece AND what it means to be a hero today.
- Also in your intro, include the specific argument about Heracles being a hero. "He is a hero for the ages because...." or "He is not a hero for the ages because..."
- Your argument should go beyond what Heracles did and focus on his characteristics.
- In the body of your paper, give specific examples, both about Heracles and about a modern day hero, in support of your argument
Language
- Revise thinking about strong language, particularly verbs and adjectives. EX- Instead of "He did his labors" think about "He completed his labors." Instead of words like good/bad, find more specific language.
- Watch for run ons, fragments and confusing phrases
