Introduction of the Response Paper - The introduction must contain title and author of the work that is being discussed about. One needs to get hold of the reader’s attention so an opening statement which is strong must also be included. The next important part of introduction is the thesis statement which must be original, supporting and arguing.

The Body of the Response - The body is in a paragraph format in which we use evidences to support our analysis. The evidences can be phrases from the literary work or words. One should be completely sure in the quotes used by the writer to explain the literary work. The pages must always be numbered, the paragraphs must be focused and every example must be able to relate back to the text of the literary work. One to four paragraphs depending on the length of the story. Each paragraph focuses on an event that teaches the character something or causes him/her to change in some way. Use intermediate words and phrases to connect ideas. 

Conclusion Part - It is said that a good conclusion to any writing makes it very effective. A good conclusion will always summarize all the points mentioned before it. One should never repeat the same paragraphs as written in body to be rewritten in the procedure of summarizing the points. One must also include observations or questions or analysis on certain aspects giving a deeper thinking to the literary work. This will take our response thesis a step further.
