Thesis Statement Review
Hello Students,
Your homework for tonight is to complete the Thesis Statement Work Sheet. It has 2 parts and is worth 20 points.
For those of you having a hard time, use the internet! Try to find some sources that will help YOU understand thesis statements. Sometimes you just need someone else to explain it to you! I have two videos below that you might want to watch for help. Keep in mind that sometimes different language arts teachers use different vocabulary. For example, the video below uses “Claim” for “Position” and “Point” for “Claim” or “Reason.” The information and steps are the same though!
Once you feel like you have a strong understanding of thesis statements, try these activities. Bring questions you have tomorrow. Remember, I can’t help you if you say, “I don’t get it.” Think specifically about what you are having a hard time with! Use a TRF thought process if that helps.
Please email me with any questions you have while working!
Ms. Timpf
