    The key is to find a way to introduce your topic. Question is, what is your topic? What are your main points?

    Term Papers
    Hi,
    Have you asked your teacher or professor how to begin?
    You need an outline first. I would go to the library, ask where old term papers are, and look at some of them. Writing an introduction takes some practice, but one has to understand their topic from the research they do. There are guides in the library about how to write an introduction, and also online.
    Your teacher would be the first to help you begin. I do wish you good luck.

    PS; Here is a link with some very good tips on writing an introduction:

    Sounds like you need a course in writing skills. This is usually part and parcel of high school and college curricula. Take one the first opportunity you get.

    Summarizing instead of plagiarizing
    If you can read it and tell me out loud what it was you read, you are summarizing. If you have not read it and copy it word-for-word you are plagiarizing. Form an image in your mind. When you describe the image that's summarizing. If it comes out your fingertips it's writing. If it comes out your voice it is speaking or speechmaking. Read. Summarize. Don't copy it.
