Writing an extended response about 'Jekyll and Hyde'

An excellent introduction could start with a brief summary of the text and its overarching message. It should then have a specific statement about the focus of the question, followed by a thesis (overarching argument). Topic sentences need to be clear, linked to the question and led by key ideas (not feature-spotting). Context can be used to develop arguments. An effective conclusion will summarise key points in the response and consider the writer’s intentions.
