Moving from Topic to Thesis

Power Point Presentation: Moving from Topic to Thesis


After our discussion and review of the above presentation, please post 3 thesis statements using the topics from the textbook on page 26 or use one of your own.

Intros and Conclusions

Write two different introductory paragraphs for the essay that you just outlined, each one featuring a different method (Definition, Quotation, Personal Narrative, Question, Staccato, Hypothetical Scenario, Historical Background).  When you are finished with your introductions, select two different types of conclusions and draft paragraphs for them as well. Publish your work online when you are done.

Paragraphs should be 4-6 sentence long. Feel free to use the internet for research. For additional examples, please see chapter 1 in your textbook.
