Stick essay outline

Thesis Statement: A stick relates to my life and To Kill a Mockingbird.

Paragraph #1
SD #1 Scout’s collection of objects from the knothole kept growing like when the stick was a branch it grew as well.
Cm Scout collected objects and the stick collected nutrients from the tree when it was a branch
Cm the knothole was filled in so there was no more collecting and the branch fell off the tree
SD #2 The stick is dead and the knothole is filled in representing a dead end
Cm Scout and Jem hit a dead end to solving who put all the objects in the knothole when Mr. Radley filled it in with cement.
Cm The stick was brought to an end when it broke off the tree
SD #3 The branch forms a Y shape which represents different directions you can take
Cm Scout could have told Atticus the truth of what Jem was up to
Cm She instead remained loyal to her brother and didn’t keep her word that she would tell

Paragraph #2
SD #1 I obtain the nutrients from my life like a stick attained nutrients from a tree
Cm My nutrients consist of the love from my parents and education
Cm I grow from this nutrients like a branch grows on a tree
SD #2 A branch will eventually start to grow in two different directions for a while and then will mostly focus on one direction.
Cm This represents a time in my life where I learn about to different and major subjects
Cm After a while, I will have to make a decision and stop growing one segment of my branch to focus on the other one. When the nutrients runs out, the branch falls off and decomposes
SD #3 When the nutrients runs out, the branch falls off and decomposes
Cm When I finish my formal education, I detach from the tree.
Cm My branch will decompose and create new nutrients for a new tree to grow
