Drafting the Extended Essay
This page is to be used once your research is completed and you are ready to begin writing the actual essay.  It will provide you with help in drafting the body of your paper, notably: using footnotes vs. parenthetical documentation, creating a traditional bibliography, writing a thesis statement, writing body paragraphs, writing a great intro and conclusion, and the EE appendix. 

The following documents will help you in the process of writing your draft of the Extended Essay. Remember that your supervising teacher can only make comments on your Extended Essay once, and those comments are broad and general. Therefore, it is your responsibility to follow the advice in the handouts provided below and revisit these handouts when your supervisor suggests that particular aspects of your essay need work.
