Hi Talia, you have a nice name.
Imagine a bunch of professors are having a philosophical discussion about Georges-Pierre Seurat.
What would they say? Based on your reading, what do you think they might be talking about?
When you write a paper, you are contributing to such a discussion.
You should end your first paragraph with a thesis statement that says something about the life of Georges-Pierre Seurat that the other professors may not have ever considered. Say something interesting.
:-)
