Overall, the paper takes an informational approach versus an argumentative approach. The thesis needed to be a concise declarative sentence that stated the issue and solution. The paper had a few areas that were unfocused and/or did not meet the assignment instructions. Use the assignment instruction to outline the paper. Doing so will ensure all the requirements are met.
Go beyond providing information and provide some analysis, evaluation, and justification.
For the length of paper it might be better to focus just on a single topic such as literacy.
There is still time to use the feedback and resubmit to improve the grade
