Echo → circle back to how you started the essay
Anecdote → A short, personal story that reinforces the main ideas of your essay
Question → Leave the reader thinking with a big question
Action → What can the reader do now to create more positive impact?

Strong, concise final sentence

Citing Sources → 
Example 1- According to Juiciest Oranges, students can reference a source within the sentence.
