What is a Classification Essay?
• A Classification Essay is an essay in which you select a category, genre, or large idea and separate it into appropriate categories
• A classification essay organizes things, people, places, etc. into categories/classes/types/kinds and presents examples and qualities of the subjects things matter that fit into each class.

Here Is An Example…
• What’s wrong with this classification?– The following are classifications of
houses:• brick• wood• big
Big doesn’t fit. Adobe fits. Big belongs to a different basis of classification—size rather than style.

• II. Body– Identifies, in separate paragraphs, the
various categories, with examples
• III. Conclusion– Restates the categories of the thesis and, as
a significance—or answer to the question “so what?” implied in any composition, stresses the value of this classification system
