Practice - Write your conclusion to the essay on page 4 of Unit 5 Lesson 8 here.
Read this short essay. Then, on a sheet of paper, complete it with a strong one-paragraph conclusion. Answers will vary but should clearly connect back to the central idea that eggs are a healthy food.
Many people refer to eggs as the healthiest food on earth. This is not an exaggeration, for eggs contain many of the nutrients that we need to survive. That is not terribly surprising when you consider that an egg holds nutrients for a baby chicken. That chick’s needs are not so different from ours.
The yolk of a single egg may contain vitamin B12, vitamin B2, vitamin A, calcium, iron, potassium, zinc, and a number of other vitamins and minerals. It contains nearly a quarter of the selenium you need in a day.
It is important to remember that if you eat an egg-white omelet, you are missing out on most of these nutrients. Egg whites contain protein, to be sure; however, it is the yolk that holds most of an egg’s vitamins and minerals.
In conclusion, ______.
